I am a PhD graduate research assistant in the Department of Mathematics at George Mason University working with Professor Maria Emelianenko. My research is in materials science, PDE modeling, and stochastic processes. Currently, my work focuses on the numerical and theoretical analysis of a one-dimensional grain boundary model describing the increase in size and rearrangement of grains in a polycrystal at high temperature.
As a side note, I am an active member and President of the George Mason University SIAM Chapter. Please see the website of our student chapter for details of previous and upcoming events.
