About me

I am an assistant professor in the School of Mathematics at the University of Minnesota. I obtained my PhD from the Department of Mathematics at the University of Washington under the supervision of professor Gunther Uhlmann. My research interests are mainly on inverse problems and partial differential equations. My detailed CV can be found here.
