My research is focused on developing an improved understanding of earthquakes and faults. I develop scalable algorithms for extracting scientifically valuable signals from large seismic datasets using techniques from artificial intelligence and statistics. I then assimilate these extracted signals to perform comprehensive analyses of the geometry of fault zones at seismogenic depths; probe the intricate spatiotemporal details of earthquake sequences; and understand the physics of earthquakes in relation to the structural architecture of fault zones.
