Welcome to
my homepage! I am a fifth year doctoral student in
the Program
in Applied and Computational Mathematics at Princeton
University.
My undergraduate work was done in the Mathematics Department at Rutgers University. My
primary research interest is mathematical biology, with an emphasis
on cancer biology.
I am currently working on my PhD thesis in the Complex Materials Theory Group
under the supervision of Professor Salvatore Torquato. My project
involves modeling heterogeneous tumor growth and treatment.
