Introduction

I am an NSF Graduate Research Fellow in the Department of Statistics at Texas A&M University. I am broadly interested in statistical approaches that meet data β€˜where it lives’. Regardless of whether data consists of tidy and tabular observations from a nested experimental design or noisily observed objects from a complicated manifold, I am interested in discovering how to mine insights from it while preserving its structure. I also am a proponent of open-source development, reproducible computing, containerization, and statistical literacy. Outside of statistics, I enjoy cooking, singing, and photography.
