Justin Whitehouse

I am a final year PhD student in the Computer Science Department at Carnegie Mellon University. I am currently co-advised by Aaditya Ramdas and Steven Wu. I broadly am interested problems in the intersection of theoretical statistics and machine learning. In particular, I have worked on problems related to causal inference, causal machine learning, and anytime-valid statistical inference. I am currently on the post-doc/job market, so please send me an email if you have any leads!

Before coming to Carnegie Mellon, I was an undergraduate at Columbia University in New York City. There, I majored in mathematics and computer science. I was fortunate enough to be advised by Allison Bishop and Suman Jana .
