Collaboration

I am open to collaboration.

I have been lucky to work with wonderful students and collaborators, and some of my favorite projects started with a cold email. If you are a student interested in research, I am always glad to chat. We usually begin with a small, well-scoped problem and work toward a publication together, and I will do my best to support you along the way. Please email me your CV and a short note about what you are curious about.

If you work in industry or academia and our interests overlap, I would love to find something to build together.

Students I have worked with

More than 20 students have worked with me on research projects, and many of them moved on to Ph.D. programs. Venues in parentheses are papers they first-authored or co-authored during our collaboration; arrows show where they went next.
