About

I joined the Biostatistics Department in 2023  as a Master's Capstone student and serve on the School of Public Health Dean’s Advisory Council of Students. This year, I am working with Professor Nayak Polissar's consulting firm on the 2022 police accountability reports that evaluates racial disparities in traffics stops. My work focuses on using statistics to promote social justice and improve social determinants of health.

Previously, I studied international development in the Middle East and comparative history at UW and worked as a Fulbright Fellow in Oman.
