About Me

I am an incoming assistant professor in the Mechanical and Industrial Engineering Department at New Jersey Institute of Technology starting in the Fall 2025. Currently, I am a Postdoctoral Research Associate working with Professor Daniel Bodony in the Department of Aerospace Engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where I am also affiliated with the Center for Hypersonics & Entry Systems Studies (CHESS). Previously, I obtained my Ph.D. from Princeton University under the supervision of Professor Clarence Rowley.

My research is computational and theoretical and, broadly speaking, I am interested in studying and modelling complex fluid flows through the lens of dynamical systems and control theory.
