I’m currently working as a data science consultant with CMC: Foundation for Change, a nonprofit focused on providing evidence-based skills to those suffering from addiction, as well as family members of those addicted.

For my undergrad I earned a BA with high honors in computer science and data analysis from Wesleyan, researching algorithms and computational complexity problems related to Nonogram with Danny Krizanc. I also earned an MA in computer science from Wesleyan, developing interpretable ML methods to evaluate feature importance scores for bias. I have experience as a TA for computer science, statistics, and data science courses, and worked as a peer tutor consulting on quantitative social science research during my time at Wesleyan.

I played varsity basketball in high school and ran track in high school and college, so I really enjoy combining my passions for sports and statistics in sports analytics! My blog discusses some projects and thoughts I have about sports, and I hope to write more!

This website is very much a work in progress, but feel free to look around! My CV linked at the top of the page has my email.
