I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Statistical Science at Duke University and I am currently Treasurer of BNP-ISBA. I obtained my PhD in Statistics at Bocconi University, where I was very fortunate to be advised by Antonio Lijoi and Igor Prünster.

Main research interests

• Bayesian Statistics, with a focus on nonparametric methods.
• Theoretical and computational aspects of finite and infinite mixture models.
• Theory of Bayesian computation, in particular MCMC sampling for high dimensional statistical problems.
