About me

Originally from Maryland, I came to UMass Amherst to study Mathematics and Computer Science. Afterwards, I joined the statistics department at Duke where I recently completed my PhD, advised by Jason Xu. I have been fortunate enough to pursue opportunities at General Dynamics Mission Systems, Johns Hopkins University: Applied Physics Lab, DraftKings, and Datadog. In addition, I was a research and development intern at Genentech working on the Epiviz project and an intern on the Machine Learning Accelerators team at Cruise and Pinterest.
