I am a Ph.D. candidate in Applied Mathematics at the University of California, Riverside, with a research focus on mathematical biology, computational modeling, and scientific computing. My work uses mathematics and technology to study complex biological systems and address real-world scientific questions. I am advised by Distinguished Professor of Mathematics Dr. Mark Alber.

In addition to research, I am passionate about teaching, mentoring, and making difficult subjects easier to understand. I have experience teaching mathematics, supporting students from diverse backgrounds, and developing educational content in mathematics, science, and English. I enjoy combining research, education, and technology to create practical solutions and meaningful learning experiences.
