I am currently a sixth-year graduate student in the Department of Statistics at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. I am advised by Professor XuanLong Nguyen. Before joining the graduate program, I completed my Bachelors and Masters in Statistics from Indian Statistical Institute, Kolkata.
Aside from research, I enjoy playing guitar, reading, traveling, and playing chess.
