I am a postdoctoral associate in the School of Mathematics at the University of Minnesota, Twin City under the supervision of Prof. Hans G. Othmer.

I finished my Ph.D. in Mathematics at the University of Wisconsin, Madison.

My dissertation advisor is Prof. Thomas G. Kurtz and the dissertation title is "Multiple scaling methods in the heat shock response model."

My research interest is an application of stochastic processes to biological models, in particular, to chemical reaction networks.
