You’re a Buckeye alum who pursued your doctorate at the University of Minnesota. What brought you back to Ohio State?

I grew up in this midwestern, urban culture, and both my family and my wife’s family live in Cincinnati. When I decided to keep doing biostatistics in academia, we began looking at places that have a similar culture and would allow us to easily get back to see our families on a regular basis. Out of our options, Ohio State’s biostatistics department was the best fit.
