My research centers around AI-powered and data-driven decision-making under uncertainty, with a keen interest in sustainability, logistics, supply chains, and revenue management.
Before joining the University of Toronto, I earned my Ph.D. in Industrial Engineering and Operations Research from the University of California, Berkeley, advised by Max Shen and Aditya Guntuboyina.
Prior to Berkeley, I received my B.S. in Mathematics from USTC.
