About

I am a research scientist with the Advanced Computing for Health Sciences section at Oak Ridge National Lab. Prior to my postdoc, I was a graduate research assistant in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Tennessee and a member of the Maroulas Research group. My research interests are motivated by the rigorous theory of Topological Data Analysis and mathematical aspects of statistical learning theory. Jointly with Dr. David Keffer, we applied ideas from topological data analysis and statistical learning theory to materials science data in order to quantify disorder at the atomic scale. Broadly, I am interested in the fertile intersection of data science, statistics and domain sciences, and using insights gained from solving real-world problems to inform and push-forward theoretical understanding.
