About
I am a researcher focusing on air-sea interaction, investigating how ocean surface waves influence upper-ocean structure and air–sea fluxes, particularly during extreme events such as tropical and extratropical cyclones, with an emphasis on their representation in coupled ocean–atmosphere models. I am also a modeler, I have spent recent years developing the Atmosphere-Ocean-Wave coupled model to better capture the complexities of these air-sea-wave coupled processes. Sometimes, I find myself as a modeler in a room full of scientists and an scientist in a room full of modelers. But I view this dual perspective as a unique opportunity to bridge these fields, constantly learning and adapting to enrich my understanding of complex ocean-atmosphere interactions
