I am from Chambery, France. I hold a B.S. in Applied Mathematics from Ecole Polytechnique in August 2013. I also obtained a M.S. in Statistics in August 2015 and a Ph.D. in Statistics in March 2016, both from University of Chicago. I joined the Faculty of Business and Commerce at Keio University in Tokyo as a Tenure-track Assistant Professor in April 2016, before obtaining my tenure in April 2018 and becoming an Associate Professor in April 2020. My research interests are financial econometrics, mathematical statistics, nonparametric statistics and applied probability. My research is partly supported by Japanese Society for the Promotion of Science Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research (B) (23H00807).
I am looking for Ph.D or postdoc students (possibly working remotedely as an exchange student). I am also looking for Master or B.S. students to work on research assistanship.
