Researcher, Inventor, Driven by Curiosity. Me at Amada in Philadelphia, 2008. I am currently a sixth-year graduate student at Harvard University, in the EconCS group. My advisor is Yiling Chen. As an undergrad, I worked on systems and security research at the University of Pennsylvania with Micah Sherr. As a result, I am happy to apply my systems knowledge to new projects and tackle research that involves engineering, implementation, or empirical challenges.

I graduated from Duke University in 2011 and am an avid runner. The paper is now online here.

Prediction markets have recently been established as popular forecasting tools. By organizing markets on research projects, we are exploring how such markets can contribute to the objectives of scientific research. Evaluating Replicability of Laboratory Experiments in Economics. Using Prediction Markets to Forecast Research Evaluations. Royal Society Open Science 2015 2 150287.

Six Reasons Fake News is the End of the World as we Know It. Celebration of Computer Science at Harvard in Honor of Harry Lewis. And the Institute for Applied Computational Science.

I am a third-year Ph. student in the Statistics Department. I am broadly interested in Causal Inference and Machine Learning. My particular focus is on combining data from disparate sources to make robust causal conclusions. I also work with Mike Baiocchi. And a team at the Stanford Prevention Research Center. Using data to develop techniques to prevent gender-based violence. A full list of my qualifications can be found on the Experience.

Reflections on machine learning, computer science, and academia. Wednesday, December 27, 2017. A Look Back on 2017. Continuing the tradition of summarizing my year on this blog, here are some things of note from 2017. I got tenure this year! And I co-chaired ALT 2017. Which was my first time chairing a conference. We got lots of great submissions and ended up with what I consider a very strong program. You can read about my experience here. Jointly supervised with György Turán. At UIC, we usually call it.
