I am a Ph.D. student in the Department of Statistics & Data Science at Yale University, where I work with Prof. Ilias Zadik.

Before coming to Yale, I completed my undergraduate studies in Mathematics at the University of Athens.

I’m interested in a wide range of high-dimensional problems in statistics and applied probability. Right now, I’m thinking about questions around the computational complexity of statistical inference.
