I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biostatistics and Health Data Science at the Indiana University School of Medicine. Prior to joining in Fall 2022, I was a post-doc in Dr. Xihong Lin’s lab at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. I received my PhD in May 2020 at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in the Department of Biostatistics under the direction of Dr. Michael Love and Dr. Danyu Lin. I develop statistical methods for the analysis of high-dimensional genomic data and specialize in integrative analyses. I recently worked as a Graduate Research Assistant for the Biostatistics Core at the Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center.

In 2019-2020 I served as the student chair of the NC ASA Scholastic Council. I received a B.S. in both Mathematics and Statistics with a minor in Computer Science at Purdue University in May 2014. In December 2017, I received my M.S. degree in Biostatistics from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill under the direction of Dr. Gary Koch.
