I am Clinical Assisatnt Professor of Mathematics at the Courant Institute, New York University

("Clinical" has nothing to do with medicine, its an NYU title for a teaching faculty).

Prior to this, I was a postdoc working with Mike Shelley and Jun Zhang, in the Applied Math Lab (AML). 
I studied biomechanics of locomotion, specifically locomotion of C elegans in structured environments. 

My earlier reasearch as a postdoc at MIT in Gareth McKinley's Lab was in 

non-Newtonian fluid dynamics, specifically viscoelastic jets.  

 I was a graduate student at Duke University, Department of Physics, 
working with Professor Bob Behringer on granular systems.
