About Me

I am a Research Software Engineer in the Modelling of Atmospheric Processes department of the Leibniz Institute of Atmospheric Physics (IAP) working on the Icosahedral Nonhydrostatic (ICON) Model, one of the world’s leading global climate and numerical weather prediction models.

Prior to joining the IAP, I completed a M.Sc. in Computational Science at the University of Amsterdam (UvA) funded by the Amsterdam Merit Scholarship and specialized in high performance computing with a particular interest in distributed discretization methods (see GalerkinToolkit.jl) and numerical methods for partial differential equations. Before the UvA, I completed a B.S. in Computer Science at Middle Tennessee State University and was the recipient of the Goldwater Scholarship.

Outside of work, I enjoy language learning (Dutch, German, and Italian), playing guitar, calisthenics, cooking, and hiking. I also enjoy contributing to open-source projects (see my contributions) and blogging about technical topics!
