I am a third-year Ph.D. student in the Department of Statistics and Data Science at Carnegie Mellon University, where I am fortunate to be advised by Arun Kumar Kuchibhotla.
My previous research projects roughly revolve around several key themes:
- Non-asymptotic extensions of local asymptotic minimax theorem
- Optimal estimation of non-smooth statistical functionals under structural assumptions
- Projection estimators on tangent cones and the failures of “standard” bootstrap
- Irregular {non/semi-parametric, shape-restricted, dimension-agnostic} inference
My mind, often scattered, traverses art, philosophy, and political science. I am currently reading Gravity and Grace by Simone Weil and The Disappearance of Rituals by Byung-Chul Han.
