Research
I am interested in theoretical and practical aspects of information processing and decision-making in uncertain environments under resource and complexity constraints. In my research, I use tools from information theory, statistics, game theory and optimal control, and signal processing.

I currently collaborate with Robert Calderbank (Duke), Todd Coleman (UCSD), Svetlana Lazebnik (UNC Chapel Hill), Roummel Marcia (UC Merced), Sasha Rakhlin (Penn), Jorge Silva (Duke), Rebecca Willett (Duke), and Serdar Yüksel (Queen's University).

Biography
I received the B.S. and M.S. degrees in 2000 and the Ph.D. degree in 2002 from Northwestern University, Evanston, IL, all in Electrical Engineering. From 2002 to 2004 I was a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Center for Photonic Communication and Computing at Northwestern University, where I pursued work on quantum cryptography and quantum communication and information theory. From 2004 to 2007 I was a Beckman Foundation Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign, where I carried out research on information theory, statistical learning and computational neuroscience. In the Fall of 2007, I have joined the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Duke University, where I am now an Assistant Research Professor.
