Academic record
Experience
Research, education, teaching, and service across applied mathematics and scientific computing.
Appointments
Research across inverse problems and numerical analysis
My work combines mathematical analysis, scientific computing, and machine learning. I develop regularization and numerical methods for inverse problems, with applications in medical imaging, parameter identification, and subsurface reconstruction.
Postdoctoral Researcher
CurrentSchool of Mathematics, Jilin University
Developing regularization methods and scientific machine learning approaches for nonlinear inverse problems in imaging and parameter identification.
Doctoral Researcher
The Chinese University of Hong Kong
Studied variational regularization and deep learning methods for electrical impedance tomography with partial measurements, advised by Professor Jun Zou.
Visiting Researcher
Developed learned regularization methods for electrical impedance tomography through an Ernst Mach Grant.
Research Assistant
Kano University of Science and Technology
Developed numerical schemes for ordinary and partial differential equations, including collocation and block methods for boundary value problems.

BTech in Mathematics
Federal University of Technology, Minna
First Class Honours. Recipient of the MTN Foundation Scholarship and Sir Peter Ojongbede's Prize for Best Graduating Student in Mathematics.
Teaching
Teaching mathematics through intuition and rigour
I have taught engineering undergraduates, mathematics students, and secondary-school learners. My teaching begins with the structure and purpose of a method, then develops the analysis needed to use it correctly.
