About me

I am a Graduate Student in the Department of Industrial and Enterprise Systems Engineering. I am also a Research Assistant and a member of Illinois Genetic Algorithms Laboratory (IlliGAL), Materials Theory and Computational Material Science Laboratory, and Materials Computation Center.

I am pursuing a PhD in systems and entrepreneurial engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. I work at the Illinois Genetic Algorithms Laboratory (IlliGAL) under the guidance of Prof. David E. Goldberg and Prof. Duane D. Johnson. My current research includes developing and analyzing competent genetic algorithms, genetic programming and principled efficiency-enhancement techniques and applying them to material-science and chemistry problems, specifically multi-scale modeling.
