About

I am a Sr. Research Scientist at Toyota Research Institute of North America (TRINA), Ann Arbor. I earned my Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering and Scientific Computing from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. My current research interests and projects involve multiscale modeling of polymers and their nanocomposites and constitutive modeling of soft and active materials. My expertise includes FEA, CFD, Atomistic simulations, and their applications focused on computational mechanics.
