Welcome to the my homepage, I am a postdoctoral researcher in the Computational Methods in Systems and Control Theory group at the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics of Complex Technical Systems (MPI-DCTS) in Magdeburg, Germany, headed by Prof. Peter Benner.

Prior to moving to Magdeburg, I was a research associate (Aug 2022–Dec 2023) in the Numerical Linear Algebra Group at The University of Manchester, where I completed my PhD (Sep 2018–Jun 2022) and was very fortunate to be supervised by Prof. Nicholas J. Higham (and Prof. Françoise Tisseur as the co-supervisor).

I work on Numerical Analysis and Numerical Linear Algebra, focusing on the design, development, and analysis of numerical algorithms. A collection of my (co-)authored papers and preprints can be found in this .bib file.
