About me

I am a graduate student in the department of computer science and engineering at the University of Notre dame. I am co-advised by Dr. Scott Emrich and Dr. Nitesh Chawla. I am a member of the Data, Inference, Analysis, and Learning laboratory and the Notre Dame Bioinformatics laboratory. I am affiliated with the Interdisciplinary Center for Network Science and Applications (iCeNSA) and the Eck Institute for Global Health.

Research Interests

My research interests cover unsupervised learning, ensemble methods, topic models, and methods to utilize heterogenous data. I primarily work in the application area of bioinformatics.
