I am a Graduate Student in the Mechanical Engineering Department at the UW Madison. I currently work as a research assistant at the Simulation Based Engineering Laboratory [SBEL] under Professor Dan Negrut. I work on topics related to parallel computing on CPUs/GPUs, multibody dynamics programming, benchmarking, build testing, graphics and rendering, and web design. Currently most of my time is spent developing Project Chrono, an open source physics engine framework for multi-physics applications.
