About Me

I am an incoming PhD student in the Department of Statistics at UC Berkeley. I am interested in a variety of topics in probability to model population growth. For example, I have primarily used continuous-time branching processes in modeling various processes related to the evolution of cancer (or any exponentially growing population).

I am currently a Senior at the Johns Hopkins University double-majoring in Applied Mathematics & Statistics and Mathematics. During my undergraduate years, I have worked (and continue to work with) Profs. Jasmine Foo and Kevin Leder at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities (affiliated with the School of Mathematics and Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering, respectively). I had also previously worked with Profs. Rob Noble and Yannick Viossat on problems related to devising tree balance-indices and mathematically investigating an evolutionary-guided cancer treatment therapy.
