I recently completed my dissertation research related to causal inference for multiple simultaneous continuous exposures as part of my Ph.D. in the Department of Biostatistics at UCLA. In the past I have worked on statistical methods related to censored regression and simulating longitudinal differential abundance of the microbiome. Many of these projects have resulted in R packages that I have authored including tcensReg, mvGPS, and microbiomeDASim which can be seen in the repositories.
I currently work for the Los Angeles Dodgers as a Quantitative Analyst.
I code primarily in R and use LaTeX for scientific writing. Some of my favorite tools to help my work are Overleaf, which has been an extremely helpful way to work collaboratively on manuscripts written with LaTeX, and the xaringan R package (https://github.com/yihui/xaringan) for creating presentations such as my dissertation.
I enjoy hiking 🗻, spending time outdoors ⛺, and baseball ⚾. Any feedback when implementing my projects here is always welcome. If you want to reach me you can 📧 me at just.williazo@gmail.com.
