About me: I am an Associate Professor of Statistics and Environment at University of Toronto. I maintain a part-time position at University of Southern California in Los Angeles, where I was previously located. I conduct research in spatial statistics, primarily applied to environmental data. I teach courses in introductory statistics, inference, data analysis, data science, and spatial statistics.
