About Me Publications

I am a 5th year PhD student advised by Prof. Yehuda Ben-Zion in Department of Earth sciences at University of Southern California (USC).

My research interests include utilizing and developing seismological analysis tools to investigate seismic source properties, analyze spatiotemporal variation of seismicity, and further understand the earthquake interaction and earthquake physics in relation to fault zone structures.
