Summary

I completed my PhD in Statistics at the University of Minnesota in May 2011. I am currently working at Savvysherpa Inc, a startup healthcare consulting company based in Minneapolis. Before moving to Minneapolis in 2005, I worked at Goldman Sachs & Co in New York City for six years after completing my undergraduate at Harvard in 1999.  I am originally from Princeton, NJ.

In my free time, I like to play and watch ice hockey.
