About Me

Hi, I’m Alading (also known as Aladdin) Kun. I am currently pursuing the MSE in Scientific Computing (SCMP) program at the University of Pennsylvania, where I focus on advanced computational techniques, numerical simulations, and machine learning applications to solve complex scientific and engineering problems.

Previously, I earned my Bachelor's degree in Computational Modeling and Data Analytics (CMDA) from Virginia Tech. During my time there, my research centered on a data-driven approach to solving complex scientific problems by leveraging large datasets to develop computational models that effectively predict and analyze real-world systems.
