I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Statistics and Data Science at Washington University in St. Louis. Prior to joining WashU, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the Laboratory for Information and Decision Systems at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). I earned my Ph.D. from the Department of Statistics and Data Science at the Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania, and my Bachelor of Science in Pure and Applied Mathematics from Tsinghua University.
