Welcome to my page! I'm an Assistant Professor of Ocean Sciences at the University of Miami's Rosenstiel School of Marine, Atmospheric, and Earth Sciences. I also hold a joint appointment with the Frost Institute for Data Science and Computing. I study ocean waves and their role in Earth System prediction, using theory, measurements, and numerical modeling. My PhD dissertation (2015) was on momentum-conserving wind-wave-current coupling. See my Google Scholar for all my papers. I enjoy making scientific software and am an advocate for open-source software and open science.

I'm a Serbian-American and a proud dad of two boys, Nolan (5 years old) and Liam (deceased at birth on August 9, 2022).

You can find my academic group's GitHub page here, and on it some open-source wave-related software. I currently advise two PhD students, Susan Harrison and Stephen Casey.

In 2020 I published a popular and highly-rated book on Fortran programming.

Back in 2010, with late Prof. Mark Donelan, I co-created a spectral wave model UMWM More recently, I created the leading Fortran framework for deep learning, neural-fortran.

Previously, I co-founded Cloudrun (a weather prediction SaaS), Fortran-lang (an open-source software community), and Henet (an ocean wave measurement technology).

Please email me if you think I can help with anything!
