I am a Visiting Assistant Professor at the Department of Mathematics and Statistics, University of Massachusetts Amherst. Previously I was a Postdoc Research Fellow in the area of Operations Management and Statistics at the Joseph L. Rotman School of Management, University of Toronto, under the supervision of Ningyuan Chen, Ming Hu and Sheng Liu. I received my PhD in applied math (AMSC) from the University of Maryland, College Park. I was fortunate to be advised by Ilya Ryzhov.

My research focuses on uncertainty quantification, including Gaussian processes and nonparametric methods. I develop fundamental methods for system intelligence and industrial computing, particularly for systems that are expensive to observe and only partially understood. I am interested in applications that advance social good, including privacy, service quality, the environment, and resilient agriculture.
