I am a first-year PhD student in the Department of Statistics at the University of Michigan. I graduated from Duke University with a B.S. in mathematics and statistical science in May 2025. Starting in Fall 2026, I will be supported by the Department of Energy Computational Science Graduate Fellowship.

I am interested in using principles from classical statistics to inform robust data science and machine learning methodology, with applied interests in human and population genetics.

At Duke, I was fortunate to be advised by Prof. Jerry Reiter and Prof. Ezra Miller. I also worked with Prof. Jichun Xie and with Prof. Chirag Patel at Harvard Medical School.

Outside of research, I have a strong interest in journalism. I worked as a news reporter and editor for The Chronicle, Duke's student-run newspaper, where I won an Associated College Press award for breaking news. I am an avid basketball fan and worked on the creative team for Duke Men's Basketball for four years.
