About

I am a fourth year statistics PhD student at Stanford, advised by Emmanuel Candès. My research interests span multiple testing, inference for adaptively collected data, and causal inference. I am supported by a NSF Graduate Research Fellowship.

Before the PhD, I graduated with an A.B. in statistics & math and an S.M. in computer science from Harvard. During undergrad, I was lucky to be advised by Lucas Janson and to work with Finale Doshi-Velez and Nan Jiang.
