About Me

I am a final-year DPhil student in the Department of Statistics, working on causal inference under the supervision of Professor Frank Windmeijer. My research centres on developing methods for instrumental variable estimation and validation, with a particular focus on two-sample and summary-data settings. My interest lies in building efficient, robust estimation techniques and specification tests, as well as integrating machine learning methods to achieve consistent, valid instrument selection and high-precision post-selection inference.

Prior to my DPhil, I earned an MSc in Statistics and Operational Research from the University of Edinburgh and a BSc (Hons) in Physics from Imperial College London.
