About Me
I am a fourth year graduate student in the Division of Applied Mathematics at Brown University, I was supported by the Brown University Presidential Fellowship for the first three years of my graduate education and currently supported by an RTG grant.
Broadly speaking, my interests lie in differential geometry, fluid dynamics, and numerical methods and their intersections. I am a big fan of Vladimir Arnold’s framework for modeling an incompressible ideal fluid in a domain through the geodesics of the diffeomorphism group in that domain. I am interested in shape analysis and computational anatomy and the computation of shape space metrics in order to compare immersed or embedded submanifolds of Euclidean domains. I am working on building shape metrics to compare shapes of different topologies. My thesis advisor is Stuart Geman.
I graduated from Rutgers University, Magna Cum Laude, with a Bachelor’s in Science with a major in Mathematics, where I received high honors and I minored in Physics.
