Short bio: Prior to joining Polytechnique Montréal under a joint appointment with Institut IVADO in 2021, Prof. I worked as NSERC postdoctoral fellow under the supervision of Prof. Alejandro Rodriguez at Princeton University (2017-2021). My research interest lie at the intersection of photonics, optimization, and computational modelling, broadly encompassing questions pertaining to inverse design, universal characteristics of wave phenomena (limits), and numerical methods.
