About

I am a Biostatistician at the Department of Biostatistics, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences and Arkasnsas Children's Research Insititude.

Prior to this, I obtained a master degree in Statistics from University of California - San Diego (UCSD). I’m trained as a mathematician, and that background shapes how I break down problems and approach every research question.
