BIO

I am an assistant professor in the Department of Chemical and Physical Sciences at the University of Toronto Mississauga. My research focuses on the characteristics and physical mechanisms of earthquake processes through analyzing seismic data and numerically modeling the rupture dynamics on fault zones. Some of my research projects include investigating how neighboring seismic regions may interact with one another, and what and how fast we can learn about an earthquake as it happens.
