Biostatistics Ph.D. Student at New York University.

Welcome!

I am a second-year Ph.D. student in Biostatistics at New York University, where I am fortunate to be advised by Professors Hai Shu and Alex Dahlen ! My research interests include multimodal representation learning, medical image analysis, uncertainty quantification, and interpretable machine learning for healthcare. I aim to develop transparent and reliable methods to augment decision-making.

I completed my undergraduate studies at UC Berkeley, where I was fortunate to work with Professor Bin Yu , and at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory with Dr. Alex Sim , Dr. John Wu , and Professor Jinoh Kim .
