this is me

Hello there! I’m a Senior Machine Learning Scientist at Prescient Design, Genentech.

Previously I was a postdoc at the Center for Theoretical Neuroscience at Columbia University’s Zuckerman Institute, working with John Cunningham on properties of variational inference. I completed a PhD in biostatistics at Harvard, advised by Finale Doshi-Velez and Brent Coull, and an MS in statistics at Duke, advised by Cynthia Rudin.

Here’s an old talk I gave at AISTATS about mean-field variational BNNs.
