About Me

I am a PhD student in the department of Mathematics majoring in Applied Mathematics. I am coadvised by Prof. Lin Lin in the department of Mathematics and Prof. K. Birgitta Whaley in the department of Chemistry. My research interest lies broadly in quantum algorithms, numerical linear algebra, applied numerical analysis of optimization and control theory.
