Welcome!
I am the Louis Owen Assistant Professor at the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Rice University.
Prior to joining Rice, I was a Postdoctoral Associate at the Laboratory for Information and Decision Systems (LIDS) at MIT, hosted by Prof. Ali Jadbabaie. I obtained my Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where I worked with Prof. Angelia Nedich and Prof. Alex Olshevksy.
Research Interests
I like all things distributed, my main research interest is the analysis of algorithms for distributed inference and social learning, and the fundamental limits of distributed optimization over networks.
Open Positions!
We are looking for PhD students, Postdocs, and Visiting Scholars on the broader area of theoretical and algorithmic distributed optimization for machine learning, control and signal processing.
