Welcome to my homepage!
I am a final-year Ph.D. student in the Department of Statistics and Data Science at the Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania, where I am advised by Professors T. Tony Cai and Zhimei Ren. My work is supported in part by an NSF Graduate Research Fellowship and has been recognized with the Wharton School’s 2026 J. Parker Memorial Bursk Prize for Excellence in Research.
I will be on the 2026-2027 academic job market.
Previously, I was an undergraduate at Harvard University, where I received a joint A.B. in Mathematics and Statistics and an S.M. in Computer Science. While there, I also had the great fortune of being advised by Professor Lucas Janson.
I was also a founding member of DynamoFL (YC W22) (now Dynamo AI!). There, I developed federated learning algorithms for a multitude of problem domains, such as automated driving, financial forecasting, and generative AI.
Research interests
My research focuses on developing methods for selective inference and multiple hypothesis testing with model- and distribution-free guarantees, designed to address the complexities of modern datasets. Some specifics below:
- Multiple testing with e-values: design of powerful e-values; boosting e-value procedures; data-driven adaptivity with e-values.
- Distribution-free selective inference: competition-based testing; conformal multiple testing.
- Agentic data science: statistically principled design of interactive, AI-assisted or AI-driven workflows with rigorous guarantees.
