Originally trained as a pharmacist, I stepped into the world of data with focus ranging from biostatistical methods to more applied fields in health economics and outcomes research. Currently, I work as a data analyst at the Center for Behavioral Cardiovascular Health (CBCH) conducting analyses on the relationship between behavioral factors and cardiovascular outcomes, and also lead one of the studies in the CORDA program which look at the cost-effectiveness of adopting the new ACC/AHA High Blood Pressure Guidelines in the US. My primary statistical and programming tools include R, TreeAge and SAS.

I received MPH degree in Health Policy & Management from Columbia University in 2011 and went back for my DrPH in Biostatistics in 2013. For my dissertation, I am working on developing the new model-based clustering algorithms for zero-inflated data with the supervision of Dr.Bin cheng and Dr.Ken Cheung. My expected graduation date is December 2019.
