I am an assistant professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at CSU Long Beach. My research group studies phenomena at the interface of biological physics and soft condensed matter. I am interested in using tools provided from biology to answer questions about the physics of soft materials. You can read about my group's research on this site. Please don't hesitate to contact me to learn more.
A good summary of my work presented for a general audience can be found in my , delivered in November 2021. You can also follow me on twitter () where I occasionally post about science.
