Computational Physicist | Scientific Machine Learning | Signal Processing & Statistical Inference
PhD candidate in Computational and Data Sciences at Chapman University, graduating December 2026. My research focuses on extracting information from noisy physical measurements using statistical estimation, Fourier/signal-processing methods, simulation, and machine learning. Previous research includes gravitational-wave astrophysics and generative modeling for LIGO-related numerical simulations.
Current research: sub-resolution sensing and parameter identifiability, statistical estimation, Fisher information, signal processing. Previous research: gravitational-wave astrophysics, scientific data pipelines, generative neural networks. Interested in: scientific ML, space/planetary science, remote sensing, astrophysics, signal processing.
