About Me

Hi! I am an Assistant Professor of Operations Management and Statistics at the University of Toronto's Rotman School of Management.

My research mainly focuses on developing methodologies and algorithms for data-driven decision-making, where I utilize a rich array of techniques from statistics, optimization, and machine learning. The motivation for my research comes from real-world applications across various sectors, including retailing platforms, on-demand shared mobility systems, supply chain management, as well as innovating within emerging platforms and service systems. My research goal is to contribute robust and practical solutions to these dynamic and evolving fields.

I obtained my PhD from the Department of Industrial Engineering and Operations Research (IEOR) at the University of California, Berkeley, where I was fortunate to be advised by Zuo-Jun (Max) Shen and Aditya Guntuboyina (Department of Statistics). During my PhD, I also spent time at Amazon Supply Chain Optimization Technologies (SCOT) and Alibaba Cloud. Prior to Berkeley, I obtained my BS in Mathematics from the University of Science and Technology of China.
