Mechanical engineering PhD student, data center air flow consultant, computing hardware enthusiast, washed-up trumpeter, even more washed sprinter, lover of all athletics, enjoyer of open source software, and a knower of ball.
My research at WPI simulates colliding droplets, I add physics to MFC, an open-source flow solver, and two of my changes are merged upstream. Before grad school I spent two years testing Ansys Fluent. Around the Upper Valley I also take on hardware, software and computing work for people, labs and companies; see consulting.
