Welcome!

I am a PhD candidate in Information Science
at Cornell University.

I am interested in data-driven and theoretical studies of social networks.

I’m lucky to work with Jon Kleinberg. My committee also includes Michael Macy and Will Hobbs.

I got my Bachelor’s degree in “Mathematical, Computational, and Statistical Sciences” at Yale-NUS College in Singapore, graduating as part of the first class. I am originally from Russia.
