# overview
I have research interests in reservoir  modeling and optimization for the oil and gas industry using concepts from mathematical modeling using discretization of pde's (finite difference, finite element methods, and finite volumes), systems and control theory and model reduction of large scale dynamical systems. In particular, I am interested in closed-loop reservoir management.
