Welcome to My Website!
I am currently a Visiting Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. I have a solid background in statistics. I completed my BS and MS at Allameh Tabatabai University in Tehran, Iran and earned my second MS at the University of Maryland College Park. Then, I completed my PhD at Iowa State University.
​
Most of my research has been inspired by real applications where I develop new methodology and statistical models with computational techniques. Some are within the areas of Bayesian statistics, nonparametric statistics, time series, and survey sampling.
Research Interests
Nonparametric Statistics, Bayesian Inference and Modeling, Computational Statistics, Regression Models with Non-standard Structures
