We live in an increasingly data-driven world. As such, the understanding and insights that we can gleam from this data are valuable assets for the future. I am interested in using data-driven analytics to understand the past as well as building software tools (modeling, AI, machine learning, predictive analytics) that allow me to intelligently predict how to lead us into the future.
Research
Ever wonder what the inside of a proton looks like? With Parton Distribution Functions, we can start to find out.
Projects
When modeling nature, fractals rule. See the work I have done to produce fractals from random numbers and even model life! You can even look at the code and make fractals yourself.
Teaching
What happens if you get lost in space or discover you have a superpower? In Honors Physics, students throw introductory physics at these very important questions.
