I am a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Biostatistics at Johns Hopkins University, working with Ciprian Crainiceanu. Before joining Hopkins, I obtained Ph.D. in Biostatistics from UCLA, working with Hua Zhou.

My current research focuses on developing flexible and scalable functional data analysis methods for modeling continuously monitored health data collected via wearable and implantable technologies. My work is motivated by problems arising from medicine and public health, including high-resolution hemodynamics data from cardiac surgery and large-scale physical activity data collected using accelerometers.
