Hello and welcome to my webpage. I'm a fluid dynamicist working on problems in viscous fluid mechanics,
ranging from the instability of supersonic boundary layers to turbulent drag reduction.
I enjoy using perturbation and numerical methods, but I have also performed some
research in experimental fluid mechanics.
I am always open to discuss and explore problems
and ideas in fluid mechanics and applied mathematics, and to start new research collaborations,
so feel free to wander around my website and drop me an email.
