Brief Biography
 
I graduated from Duke University with a BS in mathematics in 1992.   After working for two years as an actuary, I got my Ph.D. in statistics from Harvard University in 1999.   I landed back at Duke in the Department of Statistical Science in Fall 2002.

Teaching
 
Here is a link to the home page for STA 101 (Section 2), which I am teaching in fall 2008:

I am the recipient of the Alumni Distinguished Undergraduate Teaching Award for 2006-2007  (news story about the award).

Research
 
I participate in both applied and methodological research in statistics.  I am most interested in applications involving social science and public policy, although I enjoy working with researchers in all disciplines.  My methodological research focuses mainly on data confidentiality, missing data, and survey methodology.
