I am a PhD candidate in Physics at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. My work in the Ferguson Group concerns the application of simulation and machine learning techniques to the design of smart nanomaterials. In general, I am interested in machine learning for guided materials design and for the fundamental understanding of proteins both beneficial–such as those that can be used for organic nanoelectronics–and harmful–such as those that contribute to neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s.
