Welcome! I am a Mathematics M.S. student at Tufts University in Medford, MA.

About me

I graduated from the University of Notre Dame in 2015 with a B.B.A in Finance with a supplemental major in Economics. From 2015 to 2021 I worked at JPMorgan in NYC in the Securitized Products Group, first in the Auto and Equipment Asset Backed Securities (ABS) Originations team, and then on the ABS Trading Desk.

In fall 2021, I returned to school for graduate study in applied and computational mathematics at Tufts University. I completed a post-baccalaureate certificate in May 2022 and a Master of Science in May 2024, each in Mathematics. I look forward to beginning a Ph.D. in Applied Mathematics at Harvard University in Fall 2024 under the supervision of Professor Nick Trefethen.

I am passionate about a variety of topics in science and engineering that rely on math and computation for modeling, simulation, and optimization. My research interests include function approximation, scientific computing, physics-informed neural networks, and complex systems.
