About

I am a Ph.D. candidate at the University of California San Diego based in the Center for Visual Computing and the Department of Music. My research covers mathematical modeling and numerical simulation of physical systems with an emphasis on differential geometry and wave motion. I am especially interested in applications of physics simulation in music technology and auditory biophysics. My Ph.D. is co-advised by Albert Chern and Miller Puckette. In addition to my academic experience, I have worked for Reality Labs Research at Meta, Moog Music, Applied Research in Acoustics, and Lofelt. In these roles, I completed research and software development for spatial audio devices, sound synthesizers, sonar systems, and gaming headphones. Prior to my Ph.D., I studied physics at Edinburgh, Wake Forest, and BYU, with concentrations in acoustics, optics, and biophysics, respectively. Additionally, I tutored college and high school students in math and physics. Originally from Los Angeles, I now live in San Diego with my wife and three daughters.
