• Academic Affiliations: Faculty of Science, Department of Mathematics
• Professional Roles: Active academic staff since 2017

Her research focuses on Numerical Analysis, Computational Mathematics, and Nonlinear Dynamics, with emphasis on interpolation methods, numerical integration of differential equations, and stability analysis of dynamical systems. Key interests include applications to celestial mechanics, Hamiltonian systems, and bifurcation theory.

Her publications span studies on orbital dynamics, numerical algorithms, and bifurcation analysis, including works on trans-Neptunian objects, restricted N-body problems, and symplectic mapping models. Recent research explores stationary solitons in discrete systems and high-dimensional curve-following algorithms for nonlinear equations.

• Selected Awards: None explicitly mentioned

Her academic advising and grant activities are not detailed in the current profile. She is affiliated with the Department of Mathematics labs and teams involved in computational mathematics and dynamical systems research.
