I am a Research Assistant Professor with the National Security Institute at Virginia Tech. I also hold an Adjunct Research Assistant Professor position in the Math Department. My research is in development of theoretical and computational frameworks to address data analytics problems, such as how to incorporate and balance data and expert opinion into decision-making, and how to estimate model parameters, including high- or even infinite-dimensional quantities, from noisy data. Areas of interest include: Statistical Inverse Problems, Uncertainty Quantification, Experimental Design, High-Performance Computing, Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning (AI/ML), and Reinforcement Learning.
Prior to joining VTNSI, I spent ten years supporting high-performance computing at Virginia Tech as a Computational Scientist with Advanced Research Computing. Prior to that, I spent seven years in the public and private sectors doing transportation modeling for planning and evacuation applications; hurricane, pandemic, and other emergency preparedness; and project management.
