Welcome

I am an assistant research professor (postdoc) in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at Worcester Polytechnic Institute working under the mentorship of Dr. Sarah Olson. Prior to this, I was a PhD student Tulane University where I was advised by Dr. Ricardo Cortez.

Updates

  • August 21, 2025: Teaching Calculus IV for A-Term of 2025-26 calendar year at WPI!
  • July 21-25, 2025: Attended the workshop Mathematical Modeling, Computational Methods, and Biological Fluid Dynamics: Research and Training at the National Institute for Theory and Mathematics in Biology in Chicago, IL. Go here for some software/Jupyter notebooks I created for a tutorial about the method of regularized Stokeslets (MRS) that I led with Sarah Olson at the workshop.
  • July 9, 2025: Preprint of Analysis of the Stability of an Immersed Elastic Surface Using the Method of Regularized Stokeslets (DF, S.D. Olson) is available on arXiv.
  • July 2024: Regularized Stokeslet Surfaces (DF, R. Cortez) was published in the Journal of Computational Physics. I have put Matlab code on a Github repostitory that implements the method and demonstrates a few test cases from the paper.
