I am a third-year Ph.D. student in Statistics under the supervision of Prof. Marek Kimmel. I am also co-advised by Dr. Wenyi Wang at MD Anderson Cancer Center. Much of my research revolves around the application of Statistics in biomedical sciences and, in particular, cancer research. I am particularly excited about developing statistical models to produce personalized cancer risk prediction for patients. Before coming to Rice, I spent a good amount of time in the United Kingdom. I completed my BSc in Mathematics at Imperial College London, and my MPhil in Finance at the University of Cambridge.
