Biography

I am now an Irish Research Council (IRC) Postdoctoral Researcher in the School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences at the University of Galway, Ireland. As an applied mathematician, I focus on bridging theoretical insight and practical innovation to address critical challenges across industrial, biological, environmental, and geophysical processes. My research primarily centers on Fluid Dynamics, with a particular interest in mass transport phenomena and their applications in sustainable development. I am dedicated to advancing the field through global collaboration, leveraging my international experience to develop innovative models that integrate analytical, computational, and machine-learning techniques. These models hold transformative potential in environmental monitoring, biomedical engineering, and beyond. By combining cutting-edge methodologies with real-world applications, I aim to produce impactful research that addresses pressing global challenges while continuing to grow as a dedicated researcher in the field of Fluid Dynamics.
