My current interests focus on modeling, analysis and simulation of stochastic/random differential equations in the applied sciences. I am affiliated with the Actuarial Mathematics program at AU: I teach courses for actuarial exams and conduct research in actuarial science related areas. I attained the ASA designation (Associate of the Society of Actuaries) in 2012 and am pursuing the FSA (Fellow of the Society of Actuaries).
