Summary

 

Summary

I am a researcher and lecturer in the Analytics, Marketing, and Operations group at Imperial College Business School.

I earned my PhD from Imperial College London and hold a Master's degree in Industrial Engineering. My research broadly intersects analytics, marketing, and operations, with a current focus on digital economics using tools from game theory and business analytics. Additionally, I have explored healthcare applications and participated in Imperial College’s Covid-19 Response Team in 2020-2021.

In addition to my research, I am teaching in the MSc Business Analytics programme, as well as in the full-time MBA programme at Imperial College Business School. I also serve as the Deputy Academic Director for both the full-time and weekend MBA programmes.
