🚀 I build high-performance C++ software for computational solid mechanics and computational geometry problems across aerospace and manufacturing applications

💼 Most recently at NREL as a scientific software developer — top contributor to Kynema, a flexible multibody dynamics codebase for simulating wind turbine structural dynamics

🌱 Core expertise: C++, HPC, finite element analysis (FEA), parallel and GPU-accelerated computing (Kokkos, currently learning CUDA), and numerical methods for mechanics-based problems

🔭 Long-standing interest in the intersection of physics simulation and machine learning — surrogate modeling, physics-informed neural networks (PINNs), and differentiable simulation

📚 Academic contributions in computational mechanics on Google Scholar

👯 Enthusiastic about collaborating on open-source computational mechanics and computational geometry projects
