I am the Theresa Seley Associate Professor of Management Science and an Associate Professor of Operations Management at the MIT Sloan School of Management. I am affiliated with the Operations Research Center and MIT IBM Watson AI Lab.
In addition to my academic role, I have served as a visiting faculty member at Google Research and Meta, where I collaborated with research and product teams on developing algorithmic foundations for online marketplaces. Prior to joining MIT, I spent a year as a postdoctoral fellow at Google Research in New York, working with the Market Algorithms team to design, test, and implement new mechanisms for digital platforms.
My current research advances digital marketplaces—such as e-commerce, online advertising, and emissions trading systems—by developing data-driven strategies and algorithmic innovations. A central aim of my work is to foster more resilient, equitable, and sustainable digital ecosystems.
I gratefully acknowledge support from the Young Investigator Program at ONR, a Google Faculty Award, the MIT–IBM Watson AI Lab, Liberty Mutual Insurance, the MIT Indonesia Seed Fund, and an MIT Research Support Committee (RSC) award. I currently serve as a Department Editor at Naval Research Logistics (NRL) and as an Associate Editor for Operations Research (OR), Production and Operations Management (POM), and Operations Research Letters (ORL). Here are links to my CV and Google Scholar page.
To Prospective Students: I am always excited to hear from prospective students who are interested in my research and eager to explore new ideas in the field. If you are passionate about machine learning and online decision making for digital marketplaces, I encourage you to apply to the Operations Research Center (ORC) here and list my name in your application. After you get admitted to MIT, please reach out to me directly.
