I am a PhD Candidate in the Dept. of Statistical Science at Duke University working with David B. Dunson. Broadly speaking, I am interested in the intersection between Bayesian Inference and Probabilistic Machine Learning. Currently, I am working on probabilistic matrix factorizations and latent variable modeling for High-dimensional data.

Prior to Duke, I completed a MSc in Data Science at Bocconi University, where I was a member of the BayesLab and was advised by Giacomo Zanella, with a thesis on stochastic gradient MCMC.
