My research interests include survival analysis, semi-parametric statistics, and functional data analysis. During my undergraduate education at Brigham Young University I worked with Dr. Brian Hartman on projects relating to automobile insurance policies with a specific focus on explainable machine learning algorithms. Currently, I am a graduate student doing research under the supervision of Dr. Bin Nan, with my proposed research in the area of survival analysis. Many of the statistical problems that I am currently trying to solve are motivated by data and trials at the Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center (ADRC) at UC Irvine.
