Research interests 

I am a seismologist combining simulations, routinely utilizing the largest supercomputers worldwide, with data-driven techniques and theoretical analysis to tackle one of the grand challenges of seismology: uncovering the physical mechanisms relevant to understanding earthquakes.

I am the recipient of a AGU Macelwane Award and an AGU Fellow, and the current president of the EGU Seismology Division.
