Hello, I'm Roman!
I research in the area of scientific computing. I develop numerical modelling tools for scientific and engineering problems such as high performance finite element solvers and mesh generators.I graduated with a dual-degree PhD from Swansea University and Technical University of Munich in 2017. During my PhD, I developed a high order finite element solver for multiphysics problems. Earlier, I did dual-degree MSc in Computational Mechnics in Swansea University and Polytechnic University of Catalonia.
I spend countless hours listening to tropical house music. I enjoy photography, playing the piano, cycling and exploring nature.
