Teaching
I really enjoy teaching statistics and data science, particularly at the undergraduate level. I am also involved in research related to statistics and data science education, with a special focus on pedagogy in the age of big data and generative AI.
Instructor
As an Instructor at Carnegie Mellon University:
- Summer Undergraduate Research Experience in Statistics: Sports Analytics Camp (Summer 2026)
This program is an eight-week summer initiative that provides students with hands-on training on statistical and data science methodology. It culminates in a final capstone project, where students work in small groups with external partners to address real-world research questions in sports analytics.
