I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Statistics at North Carolina State University. I have research interests in Bayesian statistics as well as multivariate and spatiotemporal statistics. My work is motivated by problems in environmental science, ecology, and sports.
I am also a Research Associate at Duke University.
Outside of work, I enjoy running, biking, hiking, and playing golf with family and friends.
