Research

Having the opportunity to collaborate with experts in a wide variety of fields is my favorite part of being a statistician. As I develop as a researcher, my goal is to contribute work that helps understand and solve complex interdisciplinary problems.

Current Projects

1. I am advised by Will Townes and am part of the CMU Delphi group. My current research is centered around statistical methods for wastewater-based epidemiology.

2. Previously, I worked with Weijing Tang and Phoebe Lam on a year-long collaboration titled Stress and Cold Susceptibility: Comparing Z-Score and Latent Measurement Models. We are currently working on a continuation of this research that takes further steps to compare the effectiveness of moderated nonlinear factor analysis with commonly used standardization approaches for psychology research. Manuscript in progress (as of May 2026).

3. On the side, I’ve done a little bit of sports analytics research. This summer, I’ll be presenting my work on super shoes and elite marathoning at JSM.
