Postdoctoral Researcher @Indiana University Department Of Chemistry

I conduct computational studies on correlated electron quantum materials, superconductors, and Kagome systems, aiming to uncover their fundamental electronic and structural properties. Alongside first-principles approaches, I also explore predictive and data-driven models, including machine learning methods, to complement traditional calculations and provide additional insights into novel materials with advanced functionalities. I actively co-mentor undergraduate and graduate students. I collaborate closely with a wide variety of experimental groups, spanning solid-state chemistry, molecular chemistry, and polymer science, which allows me to connect theory with experiment across diverse material classes. This broad perspective helps bridge fundamental understanding and practical applications in areas such as energy materials, quantum technologies, and multifunctional polymers.
