About

I am a postdoctoral scholar hosted jointly at the Statistical Laboratory, University of Cambridge and the Schools of Industrial and Systems Engineering and Electrical and Computer Engineering, Georgia Tech. 

I am broadly interested in problems at the intersection of optimization, statistics, and probability. In particular, I am interested in understanding both statistical and computational aspects of learning from random (as opposed to worst case) data. Most of my recent work has focused on providing sharp, algorithm-specific guarantees for various nonconvex optimization problems with random data.
