Research Interests

I am really passionate about how we can use seismologic data, developing numerical techniques to model seismic wave propagation, and imaging of Earth’s deep interior. I am very interested in using seismology to understand Earth’s structure, composition and dynamics. My currently project involves a use of recently developed MATLAB software to digitize seismograms recorded at the Harvard Adam Dziewoński Observatory between 1933 and 1953 for future analysis. I intend to benefit from this opportunity to learn more about analytical and computational skills to organize and interpret the vast amounts of data generated by earthquakes.
