Received bachelor's degree in mathematics in 2018 and master's degree in mathematics in 2020, both from the University of Latvia. Currently a PhD student in Mathematics, specializing in Mathematical Statistics. Academic interests include nonparametric statistics, especially the empirical likelihood method, as well as econometrics, time series analysis and Bayesian statistics.
