I’m a final year PhD student at the Center for Atmosphere Ocean Science at NYU’s Courant Institute being advised by Laure Zanna.

I am working on problems related to large scale climate and ocean dynamics. My PhD work so far has used various methodologies including response theory to understand perturbations of the climate system, developing theory from simplified geophysical fluid dynamics models, and working with an ocean model (MITgcm) run in idealized set-ups.
