Happy to chat
I received my doctorate in the Department of Nuclear Science & Engineering working in the Plasma Science and Fusion Centre located at MIT. Originally from Canada, my past volunteer and professional experiences range from wildlife rehabilitation to simulating quantum optical phenomena. My primary focus today is to advance scientific modelling using physics-informed deep learning to help both humans and animals.
Resume
I graduated summa cum laude from Western University in 2017 with an Honours Specialization in Physics and had the fortunate opportunity to partake in vibrant educational experiences such as Astronomy at Taj. My degree was heavily focused on mathematics and physics along with additional coursework in statistics, scientific computing, organic chemistry, and genetics.
I graduated with a PhD in Applied Plasma Physics at MIT where I developed novel machine learning techniques for plasma simulations and fusion experiments. Past projects during the course of my graduate studies range from the proposed design of an MHD generator for a conceptual nuclear rocket to reviews of the impacts of radiation fear emanating from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster. My doctoral research was primarily focused on edge plasma phenomena trying to understand mechanisms that influence turbulence and confinement in fusion plasmas.
