My research and teaching focus on three dimensions of supply chain and operations management:

a. Model and data driven understanding for how business managers perceive and estimate uncertainties,

b. Descriptive models for how they react to these uncertainties, and

c. Prescriptive optimization based models for how they should react to the uncertainties.

I collaborate with firms to develop new forecasting and optimization models to improve business performance.
