Professional Information

I am an assistant professor of Computer and Information Science at the University of Pennsylvania. I joined the CIS department in June 2017. I am a faculty in Penn's SIG Center for Computer Graphics, the Penn Institute for Computational Science (PICS), and the Graduate Group in Applied Mathematics and Computational Science (AMCS). My research interests include physics-based simulation for computer graphics, computational solid and fluid mechanics, and scientific computing. I also combine physical simulations with computer vision, robotics, cognitive science and medicine.
