I'm a data scientist and full-stack developer finishing my MS in Biostatistics at West Virginia University (May 2026).
I work as a biostatistician at the West Virginia Clinical and Translational Science Institute (WVU CTSI), where I provide statistical support for clinical and translational research projects. This includes study design, power analysis, and data analysis for researchers across the university.
My background combines statistical training with hands-on engineering. For my undergraduate thesis at Minerva University, I worked on causal identification algorithms and found a bug in Microsoft Research's DoWhy library that was invalidating roughly half of their significance tests. I built my own implementation that was more general and 60% faster.
I've worked as an AI engineering intern at Rhetoric, where I built LLM-based extraction pipelines, and done contract development for startups building ML-powered products and full-stack web apps. I write Python, TypeScript, R, and occasionally Rust.
I did my undergrad at Minerva University, where I studied statistics and computer science and spent semesters in San Francisco, London, Seoul, Berlin, Buenos Aires, and Taipei.
In my free time, I enjoy cooking, epistemology, and learning new languages.
