My formal training is in Lattice Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), Numerical Linear Algebra, and High Performance Computing. In my early days as a graduate student and postdoctoral fellow, I performed analysis for hadron structure calculations, ported and wrote software for heterogenous architectures, and worked on various projects related to novel algorithm development, all in the context of QCD. More recently, however, my interests have expanded into Quantum Computing and Radiation Hydrodynamics. I often spend time working on deploying linear solvers on new architectures, be they on machines with GPU accelerators or on quantum computers. On a more ongoing basis, I investigate novel relaxation schemes for Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian calculations in the context of Inertial Confinement Fusion simulations. My most current work has involved understanding anomalies in fusion science through computational modeling.
