Exciting news! We're transitioning to the Statewide California Earthquake Center. Our new website is under construction, but we'll continue using this website for SCEC business in the meantime. We're also archiving the Southern Center site to preserve its rich history. A new and improved platform is coming soon!

About Me
Publications
I was trained as a geophysicist in undergrad. Now, I am a Ph.D. student at University of California, Riverside conducting earthquake research. I have been in the Earthquake Processes & Geophysics group at UC Riverside since 2016. My Ph.D. researches focus on developing theoretical models to integrate observations and to explain earthquake rupture behavior.
