Background
Professor at the Department of Mathematics, Iowa State University, specializing in Computational and Applied Mathematics. My research spans several areas, including mathematical modeling through partial differential equations (PDEs), applied analysis, numerical methods, and scientific computing. Currently, I am exploring the intersection of mathematical foundations with emerging technologies such as deep learning, as well as leveraging data-driven approaches to address PDE-based problems.
