MS, PhD Northeastern University

I am a recent PhD graduate of Northeastern University's MINUS Lab, where I investigated the structure-property-processing relationship of polymer nanocomposites. My PhD research resulted in the development of many Python packages and codes, all available under Codes, with the primaries being mdvoro and pothos. If you have questions, please feel free to email me, or open an issue on Github.

I am still building out my website, so please bear with me while I flesh it out :)

Fine-scale surface complexity promotes temperature extremes but reduces the spatial extent of refugia on coastal rocks

Submitted, Ecological Modelling

  • July 30, 2024

The physical structure of microhabitats influences the availability and quality of refuge sites from the intense solar radiation exposure experienced during heat waves. A combination of elevated environmental temperatures, lack of shade, and low tides may often be fatal for sessile organisms. In this paper we inspect the influence of fine-scale morphological influences on the refugia quality in coastal, intertidal environments.
