Welcome

I am a Motion Software Engineer with the CoreMotion Team in Sensing and Connectivity at Apple and a Visiting Associate Research Scientist and Principal Investigator of the Computational Geomechanics Group at the UC Santa Cruz Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences. I received my PhD working with the California Institute of Technology Seismological Laboratory and Department of Mechanical and Civil Engineering and was previously an National Science Foundation Postdoctoral Fellow. My research has focused on applications of computational mechanics in studies of fracture and frictional sliding in relation to geophysical hazards, such as earthquakes and landslides.

I also co-lead the Statewide California Earthquake Center (SCEC) Sequences of Earthquakes and Aseismic Slip (SEAS) code-verification project.
