About me

I graduated from the Department of Civil Engineering at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. My research focuses on Metal/Concrete 3D Printing process modeling, Fluid-Structure Interactions, and Physics-Informed Neural Networks. I have published over 10 papers in top journals, including Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering, Computational Mechanics, and the International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering. My computational framework for metal additive manufacturing process modeling secured second place in two categories at the AM Bench 2022 competition organized by the National Institute of Standards and Technology. Additionally, the corresponding paper was a finalist for the 33rd Robert J. Melosh Medal at Duke University. You can find my personal webpage here.
