Computational and Theoretical
Physicist specializing in network
materials, structures, and systems. My
research areas have included the
following: data pipeline creation,
presence detection, machine learning
compilers, 3D reconstruction, object
detection, face detection, and facial
recognition at SmartThings; deriving
and simulating mechanical properties
of fibrous network materials at the
University of Pennsylvania; and
simulations of current distribution
and cascading failures of electrical
power grid networks at Yeshiva
University. To solve the mathematical
equations I develop which govern the
given research phenomena, I use
optimization techniques, Machine
Learning architectures (Naive Bayes,
Decision Trees and Random Forests,
XGBoost, and LLMs) and frameworks
(such as PyTorch, TensorFlow, and
Scikit-learn), and computational
systems solvers such as CFD (OpenFOAM)
and FEA (Abaqus, COMSOL), as well as
custom solvers, scripts, and programs.
I have extensive experience with
writing, debugging, and running code
in Python, MATLAB, and C/C++,
including for parallel computing with
MPI on Linux high-performance
computers (HPC) and on cloud platforms
such as AWS.
