Welcome! I am a Ph.D. candidate in Management Science/Operations Management at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business, advised by Prof. John R. Birge and Prof. Varun Gupta. Prior to Chicago, I received my B.S. and M.S. degrees, in 2015 and 2017, respectively, from the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, where I was also affiliated with the Coordinated Science Laboratory, and I was fortunate to have Prof. Tamer Başar as my thesis advisor.

My research interests generally lie in sustainable operations, broadly defined, with a major focus on electricity market design, power/energy systems, and environmental policy, as well as some other areas related to sustainability (such as supply chains). During my PhD, I have been working on a wide range of research projects, drawing tools from mathematical modeling, optimization, control, game theory, reinforcement learning, algorithm design and data analysis, as well as benefiting from collaborations with professors and students, Argonne National Laboratory researchers, and industry practitioners.
