Welcome to my digital base!

I am a statistician developing methodologies for data with complex dependence structures. My research spans longitudinal and spatial data analysis, statistical genomics, and modeling of dynamic systems, particularly in Bayesian setting.

At present, I am a postdoctoral scholar in the department of statistics at Rice University working under the mentorship of Christine Peterson. My current aim is to develop robust methodology for integrative analysis of microbiome datasets with multi-omic modalities, while modeling intricate spatial and temporal structures present in the data.

Previously, I have been a postdoctoral researcher in the department of economics at Università della Svizzera italiana (USI) in Lugano, Switzerland, working with Stefano Peluso and Antonietta Mira. I earned my Ph.D. in Biostatistics from the University of Louisville under the supervision of Jeremy Gaskins. My dissertation can be accessed here.
