Research Topics:
  • Applied mathematics

Office Number: Chase Room 322

Education:  PhD -University of British Columbia (2001)
  MSc -University of British Columbia (1997)

Scholarly Interests:  My research focuses on reaction diffusion equations which exhibit solutions with highly localized spatial structures. I use methods from asymptotic analysis and dynamical systems to analyze these equations.
