👋 Hi, and welcome to my website!

I’m Ashley, a Ph.D. student and research assistant in the Department of Biostatistics at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. These days, I work with Dr. Rameela Raman and her team on collaborative projects with the Tennessee Department of Children’s Services.

I recently earned my master’s degree from the Department of Statistical Sciences at Wake Forest University, where I worked with Dr. Sarah Lotspeich on methods to handle measurement error and their exciting applications to the study of local food access. Go Deacs! 🎩

Before heading to graduate school, I studied applied mathematics with Dr. Murong Xu and philosophy in the Special Jesuit Liberal Arts program at the University of Scranton. Go Royals! 💜

I 💖 working with data and talking about sitcoms and romcoms, sometimes even at the same time!
