About

I'm a PhD student in statistics at Stanford. I'm interested among other things in non-parametric statistics, uses of sampling in data analysis, and empirical Bayes techniques. My favorite part about doing statistics is when I manage to help people get new insights about their problems by framing them in terms of statistical concepts.
