Academic Achievements
  • GOLAZO R package for a general asymmetric regularization of the log-likelihood in Gaussian graphical models.
Research Experience
  • Editorial responsibilities: JRSS-B, Biometrika, Scandinavian Journal of Statistics, Algebraic Statistics. Starting from July 2025 you can find me in Barcelona. I am on leave from the Department of Statistical Sciences and the Department of Mathematics at the University of Toronto.
Background
  • Research interests: graphical models, covariance matrix estimation, convex analysis, tensors, algebraic and combinatorial methods in statistics.
Miscellany
  • Looking for students with strong math background interested in doing PhD. Citing Federico Ardila's four axioms: Axiom 1. Mathematical potential is distributed equally among different groups, irrespective of geographic, demographic, and economic boundaries. Axiom 2. Everyone can have joyful, meaningful, and empowering mathematical experiences. Axiom 3. Mathematics is a powerful, malleable tool that can be shaped and used differently by various communities to serve their needs. Axiom 4. Every student deserves to be treated with dignity and respect.
