About me
Welcome to my website!
I am a Postdoctoral research fellow in Biostatistics at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, where I am supervised by Professor Jeffrey W. Miller and Professor Giovanni Parmigiani. I am also affiliated with the Data Sciences department at the Dana-Farber cancer institute.
I obtained my Ph.D. in Statistical Science at Duke University, in North Carolina, where I worked under the supervision of Professor David Dunson within Project LIFEPLAN, an international research group whose aim is to quantify biodiversity across the globe.
My curriculum vitae is available here. A complete list of publications is available here.
