I am a scientist and instructor at EPFL in the Department of Mathematics. Before coming to Lausanne, I have been in San Diego as a Visiting Assistant Professor from 2017-2021

I received my PhD at the University of Oslo, Norway, in 2017. Before, I double-majored in Computer Science and Mathematics at the University of Bonn. 

I was a scientific visitor at the University of Minnesota in 2015-2016, at Cambridge University in 2019, and at Brown University in 2020. 

My expertise is the theory of numerical simulations, in particular electromagnetism and general relativity.

Teaching & PhD

Courses

Analysis III (for IC)

The course studies the fundamental concepts of vector analysis and Fourier analysis with a view to using them to solve multidisciplinary scientific engineering problems.

Analysis IV

(Coursebook not yet approved by the section)

Numerical methods for conservation laws

Introduction to the development, analysis, and application of computational methods for solving conservation laws with an emphasis on finite volume, limiter based schemes, high-order essentially non-oscillatory schemes, and discontinuous Galerkin methods.
