Causalica
Causal inference for real decisions
A modern home for rigorous causal thinking—methods you can trust, explanations you can reuse, and workflows you can ship.
Textbook
A living Quarto book with foundations, examples, and notes that grow over time.
Writing
Short, rigorous pieces on identification, robustness, and decision-making under uncertainty.
Work
Causal strategy, design review, reproducible pipelines, and research engineering support.
What makes Causalica different
Design-first, not algorithm-first
Strong identification beats fancy models. I focus on assumptions, estimands, and robustness— then pick methods that match the decision.
Reproducible by default
Clean structure, versioned outputs, and workflows you can run again. No “mystery notebooks” that can’t be reproduced a month later.
