I am an assistant professor of quantitative methodology at the University of Puerto Rico with a PhD in Political Science and an MS in Applied Statistics from Indiana University. My research and consulting expertise spans Bayesian and frequentist statistical modelling, social network analysis, causal inference, and reproducible data workflows.
