About

{{ UPDATE: 2–3 paragraphs introducing yourself. Suggested flow: who you are academically, what draws you to biostatistics, your teaching philosophy in a line or two, your institutional home. Aim for ~200 words — warm but professional, no jargon in the first paragraph. }}

What I do

Research. {{ UPDATE: 2–3 sentences on your research interests. Name 2–3 specific methodological or substantive areas — e.g., ‘methods for small-sample inference in health-disparities research, statistical evaluation of community-health interventions, and robust approaches to the analysis of categorical outcomes.’ }}

Teaching. I teach applied biostatistics to graduate public-health students. My goal is for students to leave the course able to read a paper critically and run (and interpret!) the three or four tests they’ll actually use in practice. See the teaching page for details and the open tools I’ve built for my students.

Service. {{ UPDATE: any editorial, review, or service roles — ASA sections, journal review, NIH study sections, departmental committees. Keep to 3–5 bullets. }}
