Summary
👤
SeniorJonah Miller is a computational physicist and numerical relativist with 13 years of research experience bridging theory and high-performance simulation, currently a scientist at Los Alamos National Laboratory and a Ph.D. candidate at the Guelph-Waterloo Physics Institute. He brings deep expertise in differential geometry, general relativity, ultrafast optics, and scalable numerical methods, having worked on black-hole and quantum-gravity simulations as well as Monte Carlo approaches to causal dynamical triangulations. At Perimeter Institute he supported researchers as a computing consultant and HPC manager, coauthoring a peer-reviewed high-energy physics paper and teaching numerical methods in Python. Jonah contributes to open-source scientific tooling as a technical writer for the widely used yt-project, improving accessibility for complex mesh workflows. A summa cum laude graduate in math and physics, he pairs rigorous analytic training with hands-on cluster and Linux experience, and maintains a physics outreach blog and fiction writing practice that sharpen his science-communication skills.
