Research Interests

I develop novel fiducial approaches to classical inferential problems and illustrate the usefulness in context to current methods. I am broadly interested in the intersection between classical Geometry and modern Statistics, especially from the fiducial perspective. My research often also involves Gaussian Graphical Models (GGMs); under this wide umbrella, I am currently engaged in projects that are both purely theoretical and applied. My applied work on GGMs is with the Mayo Clinic and involves detecting drift or abrupt changes to data.

My work has recently taken a shift more towards the applied with my position at Los Alamos National Lab. I have taken an interest in heteroskedastic sensitivity analyses for large-scale gas transport simulations through underground discrete fracture networks. I have also begun working with a team of disease forcasting researchers hoping to better prepare for the next pandemic.

Brief Bio

I'm a born-and-raised Pittsburgh-er who traveled down south to pursue my dream of being a Statistics professor. When that dream changed, I headed westward. When I'm not thinking about math and coding, I'm swimming, dancing, and singing loudly in the shower.
