I am a fifth year PhD student in Statistical Science at University of California Santa Cruz, where I work on Bayesian modeling for non-Gaussian processes in time and space. My research interest includes Bayesian modeling and inference for temporal/spatial data and point processes, Bayesian nonparametrics, mixture models, and graphical models. I am advised by Athanasios Kottas and Bruno Sansó.

In a previous life, I worked as a thermal and electrical engineer. I then went to University of Macau to study finance as a part-time graduate student. There, I first knew about Bayesian statistics and decided to pursue a PhD. This is a book link for someone who wants to know a bit about Bayesian history :P
