Academic Credentials
Currently, I am a graduate research assistant (GRA) at the center of Fluids and Thermal Sciences at Brown University. My research interest lies in oceanography, satellite altimetry, and the submesoscale dynamics in the arctic. I am seeking exposure in developing a mechanical, and mathematical model to address the favor of the environment, marine ecology, and biodiversity analyzing the sea-ice dynamics, and their interaction specifically the marginal ice zones (MIZ).
