Hello! I am a Biostatistics PhD candidate in the collaborative program between the Department of Statistics and Data Science at Southern Methodist University and University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas (UTSW). Prior to my studies at SMU, I completed an M.S in Mathematics at University of North Texas, worked as an Analyst at Gamesys Group in London, UK, and earned my B.Sc. in Mathematics, with a minor in Computer Science, from Alderson Broaddus University in West Virginia–where I was also a student-athlete on the men’s soccer team. This website is currently under construction… please come back soon for updates!

Research

My current research focuses on developing a risk score to predict the 10-year risk of cardiovascular events among women in the Veterans affairs (VA) healthcare system. I am also interested in developing statistical methods to handle complex data structures in recurrent events studies and to address left-censored data in crossover designs.
