Hi, I'm Jake

Welcome to my webpage! I'm a PhD Candidate in the Department of Statistics at the University of California, Berkeley. My advisor is Philip B. Stark. Before Berkeley, I worked as a research assistant in the Department of Health Care Policy at Harvard Medical School in the lab of Sharon-Lise Normand. I got my Bachelors Degree in Mathematics at Bowdoin College. I am interested in a wide-range of topics with ramifications for science or justice, and have worked on statistical problems in:

• Risk-limiting post-election audits  

• Soil organic carbon measurement

• Cardiovascular and psychiatric outcomes research

• Graduate school admissions

• Motor carrier safety

My technical research interests include:

• Nonparametric inference

• Design-based causal inference

• Sequential inference

• Randomized controlled trials

Outside of statistics, I write poetry and mix music. I published a chapbook titled Millenarianism in Spring 2023, please email me if you're interested in reading it! You can also checkout some of my mixes on soundcloud.
