I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Statistics at the University of British Columbia . I am also an inaugural member of the AI Methods for Scientific Impact (AIM-SI) cluster within the Centre for Artificial Intelligence Decision-making and Action (CAIDA). Previously, I was a Florence Nightingale Bicentenary Fellow in Computational Statistics and Machine Learning at the University of Oxford’s Department of Statistics. I have also completed a postdoc supervised by Arnaud Doucet and a PhD supervised by Alexandre Bouchard-Côté.

My lab focuses on the design and analysis of annealing algorithms for scalable Bayesian inference. I collaborate closely with scientists across a variety of application domains including astronomy, chemistry, and biotechnology. Notably, I am a member of the Algorithms and Inference Working Group for the Next Generation Event Horizon Telescope (ngEHT). See my Google Scholar for an up-to-date list of my publications.
