I’m a theoretical astrophysicist and mathematician currently pursuing my PhD at UC Berkeley, and formerly at the University of Utah. My research lies at the intersection of galactic dynamics, numerical simulation, and cosmological inference—with a broader emphasis on using computational methods to understand high-energy and gravitational phenomena.
This page hosts open-source projects and tools I’ve developed for scientific modeling, data analysis, and symbolic and numerical computation. I care deeply about accessible, well-documented academic code, and I aim to build tools that support robust, reproducible research.
