I work on the research, development, and application of machine learning and optimization techniques to challenging scientific problems.

Working at the intersection of computer science, statistics, and domain science, I work other researchers to develop new methods and tools to solve complex problems. I work at the Institute for Data Intensive Engineering and Science at the Johns Hopkins University. I am also a member of the JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey (JADES) collaboration working to unlock the secrets of the early universe using the James Webb Space Telescope.
