Mathematical modeling of physiological systems

My research sits at the intersection of applied mathematics, physiology, and machine learning. During my postdoctoral work at the University of Michigan, I developed patient-specific mathematical models of cardiovascular control, studying how heart failure and autonomic neuropathy affect circulatory dynamics at both systemic and cellular scales.

My graduate minor in Physiology and years of yoga teacher training create an unusual vantage point: I bring mathematical rigor to questions of embodiment, autonomic function, and the measurable effects of breath and movement practices on human health.
