Bio

My research lies at the intersection of machine learning, causal inference, and policy, where I develop and apply machine (deep) learning models to address challenges in complex, high-dimensional longitudinal health data.

My research agenda spans several interconnected areas, including extending causal inference methods for multi-valued treatments, developing frameworks for adversarial machine learning, applying neural networks for health outcome prediction or causal impact estimation, and evaluating deep learning approaches for missing data imputation in survey data.
