I am a computational physics researcher based in
Reality Labs Research at Meta. My
research spans 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. Prior to joining Meta, I was a Ph.D. candidate at the
University of California San Diego based in the
Center for Visual Computing and the
Department of Music. My Ph.D. was co-advised by
Albert Chern and
Miller Puckette.
Before my Ph.D., I studied physics at Edinburgh,
Wake Forest, and BYU,
with concentrations in acoustics, optics, and biophysics, respectively. Originally from Los Angeles,
I now live in Seattle with my wife and three daughters.
