Research

I'm broadly interested in aspects of signal processing, imaging, inverse problems, optimization, scientific computing, numerical methods, numerical simulation, high-performance computing, machine learning, data analysis, and wave propagation. My thesis work is in developing improved methods for acoustic wave-based imaging. While my main application area has been for geophysical problems, I have broad and interdisciplinary interests.
