I am pursuing a PhD in computer science and specialize in high-performance computing. My research focuses on upcoming high-performance computer achitectures and algorithmic improvements for the spectral element method with applications in computational fluid dynamics. My principle supervisor is Stefano Markidis and I am co-supervised by Niclas Jansson and Philipp Schlatter.

My interests more generally are regarding the limits of computation and what we can do to overcome them. What is possible to compute given some computer and algorithm and how will this computation change in the future?

Before coming to KTH I obtained a MSc in Engineering Physics from Lund University and spent one year of my master studies at the computer science department at ETH Zürich.
