Bio

I am an associate professor at the Department of Biostatistics & Bioinformatics and affiliated with Rhodes Information Initiative and Fuqua School of Business of Duke University. Previously, I was an assistant professor of Statistics at Penn State University.

I received my PhD in Operations Research and Financial Engineering from Princeton University. During my time at Princeton, I was extremely fortunate to have Han Liu and Robert Vanderbei as my advisors for my thesis with Jianqing Fan and Mengdi Wang in my committee. Before going to Princeton, I got my bachelor's degree from National University of Singapore, where I had the privilege to write my undergraduate thesis under the supervision of Kim-Chuan Toh. Prior to my college life, I spent three wonderful years at Chengdu No.7 High School.
