I am a PhD Candidate in the Department of Civil & Construction Engineering at Oregon State University, under the supervision of Professor Dr. Ben Leshchinsky.

My work is driven by a fascination with how the earth moves and behaves under pressure — specifically focusing on the complex mechanics that govern soil stability and subsurface environments.

As a researcher, I operate at the intersection of high-precision laboratory testing and computational modeling. I specialize in translating raw field data into robust numerical simulations — whether running iterative solvers to predict fluid movement in soil or using MATLAB to analyze complex signals.

My goal is to turn experimental observations into clear, actionable insights that advance our understanding of geotechnical systems.
