Michael S. Ackermann

I am a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Mathematics at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (Virginia Tech). The focus of my dissertation is data-driven reduced order modeling, rational approximation, numerical linear algebra, and scientific computing. My advisors are Serkan Gugercin and Steffen W. R. Werner.

My dissertation research is supported by the Simons dissertation fellowship in mathematics, as well as the Lee R. and Regina Aultice Steeneck Graduate Scholarship. For the past two summers, I have been a Computer Science Research Institute summer intern at Sandia National Laboratory.
