About

I received my PhD in Health Policy and a secondary degree in Computational Science & Engineering from Harvard University. Prior to graduate school, I worked as an analyst for several companies where I had the opportunity to work with different types of health care data on a variety of research topics, from identifying Medicare fraud, waste, and abuse to measuring the impact of Medicaid expansion on primary care practices.
