Welcome to my personal website. I'm Hojjat Kaveh, a PhD candidate at the Caltech Seismolab, where I explore the frontiers of geophysics, seismology, inverse problems, and machine learning. My work is dedicated to understanding and forecasting seismic events—bridging physical models with data-driven insights to mitigate seismic risks. I am guided by the expert mentorship of Jean Philippe Avouac and Andrew Stuart.
