Hi! I am an assistant professor of operations, technology and information management at SC Johnson College of Business at Cornell University. I am also a faculty fellow at the Cornell Atkinson Center for Sustainability.
My research leverages applied game theory, machine learning, and optimization to translate data into policy prescriptions. A common theme in my work is developing spatial and structural models of urban systems, with a focus on public policy and essential service operations in transportation, retail, and emergency response. I particularly enjoy working with practitioners in both the public and private sectors, and many of my projects grow out of conversations and collaborations with them.
Before joining Cornell, I received a PhD in Operations Management from the University of California, Los Angeles, a MS in Marketing Science from Columbia Business School and a BEng in Industrial Engineering and Computer Science from Tsinghua University.
