About me

Welcome to my homepage! Since December 2023, I am a professor of Statistics in the Department of Mathematics, Université du Québec à Montréal. In 2022-23, I was an NSERC Postdoctoral Fellow at the Technical University of Munich, in the Research group on Mathematical Statistics led by Prof. Mathias Drton. I previously completed a Ph.D. at the Department of Statistical Sciences, University of Toronto in 2022 under the supervision of Prof. Stanislav Volgushev. Prior to joining Toronto, I obtained a B.Sc. in Mathematics (2015) and an M.Sc. in Statistics (2017) from the Department of Mathematics and Statistics, Université de Montréal.

Outside of school, I especially enjoy making/drinking espresso, listening to music and going to live concerts, and running (see my Strava page, which is not very consistent nowadays but had some more glorious days).

Research

My current research interests lie in the estimation theory of dependence structures and copulas, mostly in the context of multivariate and spatial extreme values. I am particularly interested in methodologies for detecting tail (or asymptotic) independence between two random phenomena. I am also working on the estimation of graphical models for asymptotically dependent extremes, with a focus on high-dimensional data.
