About Me
I am a third-year
PhD student at Courant advised by Professor Alex
Mogilner, supported by the NSF GRFP. My
research interests are in the mathematical modelling and
numerical simulation of mechanical phenomena in cellular
biology, relevant to processes such as cell motility,
division, and intracellular transport.
Most recently, I have been working on modelling in
vitro actomyosin dynamics in collaboration with
experimental laboratories. |

Outreach
I believe it
is crucial that we work hard to
make mathematics more inclusive,
supportive, and welcoming to
individuals who have been
historically marginalized in the
mathematical sciences. In
pursuit of this, I help organize the Courant DEI
Reading
Group and
am lead
organizer of
the grad and
postgrad
section of the
AWM Chapter. Additionally,
this past year
I led an effort
to generate a
new internal
Courant PhD
student survey
administered
by the
Courant
Student
Organization. |
