I am a postdoctoral research fellow with Distinguished Professor
Noel Cressie
and Associate Professor Andrew Zammit-Mangion
at the University of Wollongong, within the Australian Research Council Special Research Initiative,
Securing Antarctica's Environmental Future (SAEF).
I received my Ph.D. in Statistical Science from the University of California, Santa Cruz,
advised by Professor Athanasios Kottas
and Professor Bruno Sansó.
I will be joining the Department of Statistics as an Assistant Professor at the University of Georgia this August. My research focuses on developing statistical and machine learning methods for inference and prediction
from complex and dependent data. Methods development is strongly motivated by addressing real-world challenges, particularly in
ecological and environmental applications, among others.
Areas of research I am currently involved in include spatial and spatio-temporal statistics, point process modeling,
probabilistic downscaling (from coarse to fine resolution), data integration, transfer learning, and statistical deep learning.
