I joined the MGH Institute for Technology Assessment (ITA) in August 2023 as a postdoctoral fellow working with Mohammad Jalali, Ph.D. Also, I am part of the Rising Scholars Program at the University of Virginia. I received my Ph.D. in Industrial and Operations Engineering from the University of Michigan working with Brian T. Denton, Ph.D. and Mariel S. Lavieri, Ph.D.
My research interests are generally in operations research and, more specifically, in stochastic models and stochastic dynamic programming applied to healthcare. My research is in data-driven models for improving decision-making in cardiovascular disease, cancer, mental health, and substance abuse. My work seeks to develop new frameworks for personalized medicine by developing disease prevention policies.
