About Me

Brief Introduction

I am currently a Research Officer with the Ministry of Education and Childcare in British Columbia, Canada.

My formal training is in mathematics and statistics.




Current Projects

I am currently applying statistical concepts on projects related to:

  • Distributions over \(\mathbb{S}^{p-1}\)

Some recent projects I completed are related to:

  • Trees
    • Joint work with Dr. Louis-Paul Rivest (Laval) and Pierre Dutilleul (McGill).
  • Hematology
    • Joint work with Dr. Marlee McGuire, Dr. Hayley Merkely and Lilian Ding



Background

I completed my PhD in Applied Statistics from the University of Guelph under the supervision of Dr. Peter Kim and Dr. Tony Desmond.

My math genealogy tree can be found here (Created with data gathered from the Mathematics Genealogy Project).

My Erdös number is 3 and my Dijkstra number is 6 (Verified using the Collaboration Distance Tool provided by MathSciNet).

My dissertation can be found here. My PhD research was related to providing a unifying theory for the relationship between some broad classes of density functions over the hyper-surface \(\mathbb{S}^{p-1}\).




Coding

I code in a variety of languages, however I am most familiar with SAS, R and Python.

I am also familar with various flavous of SQL, such as T-SQL on cloud architecture implemented over Azure.




Professional Development

I am an Associate Statistician (A.STAT.) and an Associate Member of the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications (AMIMA) .

I am working towards obtaining the P.STAT. designation under the mentorship of Soyean Kim.
