About Me


I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Statistics at University of Wisconsin-Madison. 


My research interests lie at the intersection of high-dimensional statistics, information theory, and applied probability. I am particularly interested in understanding phase transitions, universality phenomena, and computational-statistical trade-offs in modern high-dimensional inference problems.
