I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Applied Statistics at Konkuk University.
Before joining Konkuk University, I was a postdoctoral research fellow at Harvard University, where I worked under the mentorship of Dr. Francesca Dominici in the National Studies on Air Pollution and Health (NSAPH) group. I completed my Ph.D. in Statistics at the University of Florida, where I was mentored by Dr. Joseph Antonelli.
My research broadly focuses on causal inference, with particular interests in methods for continuous treatments and treatment effect heterogeneity. I primarily apply these methods to problems in environmental health.
Students interested in causal inference and in working with me are encouraged to contact me by email.
