I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Victoria.
My research develops statistical methods for complex data including functions, matrices, and tensors, with a focus on Bayesian methods for neuroimaging and precision medicine. Learn more on my Research and Publications pages.
Before joining UVic, I was a postdoctoral researcher in Biostatistics at the NYU Grossman School of Medicine, working with Thaddeus Tarpey and Hyung G. Park. I received my Ph.D. in Statistics from the University of British Columbia, supervised by Matías Salibián-Barrera.
I am recruiting! I am looking for graduate students (M.Sc. / Ph.D.), undergraduate research assistants, and research interns to join my group. Learn more →
