I am an Assistant Professor at the Department of Mathematics at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga (UTC). My work focuses on developing statistical methods for network science with applications in different real-world problems. Before coming to UTC, I worked as a Research Associate at the Department of Biostatistics at Harvard University under the supervision of Dr. Jukka-Pekka Onnela from 2020-2023. I obtained my Ph.D. in Statistics in 2020 at Michigan State University under the direction of Dr. Ping-Shou Zhong. Besides my main research interest, I am also interested in statistical consulting. Since Spring 2024, I have served as a Statistical Consultant for the University of Tennessee Health Science Center. In my free time, I enjoy swimming, practicing martial arts, and meditating.
