I am an Assistant Professor of Biostatistics at the Division of Biostatistics at the Department of Population Health, NYU Grossman School of Medicine. I am also a Visiting Researcher at Google, working with Ramin Zabih.
Previously, I was an Assistant Research Professor of Biostatistics at the Biostatistics Center and the Department of Biostatistics and Bioinformatics at the George Washington University School of Public Health, and a postdoctoral associate at the Cornell TRIPODS Center for Data Science and Cornell Tech mentored by Dr. Nathan Kallus and Prof. Thorsten Joachims.
My research focuses on the development and applications of statistical and data science methods for optimal decision making using real-world and experimental data.

I have been a teaching assistant for the following courses for the Doctoral Program in Epidemiology and the Research School for Clinical Epidemiology at Karolinska Institutet:
When I am not reading about biostatistics and data science, I like to learn more about contemporary history. I also enjoy keeping myself active by playing sports and going to the gym. I love to play and listen to music, especially electronic and film music. During the past few years I started several electronic music projects that included production using Ableton Live. Last but not least, I love to play, cuddle and spoil my fluffy dog Mister Pom Princess ``PK” Cake.
