Biography

My research interests lie in the adaptation and application of time-series and dynamic models to longitudinal data for studying changes in human behavior. Increasing complexity (e.g., nesting, nonstationarity) in the data collected in today’s social and behavioral sciences calls for the consideration of more complex models and more advanced modeling techniques. I am particularly interested in methodologies for intensive longitudinal data from various sources, such as ecological momentary assessments (EMAs), wearables, and electrocardiograms.
