About
I am an assistant professor of Operations Management at the Jindal School of Management, University of Texas Dallas. Prior to joining UTD, I earned my PhD in Operations Management from Carnegie Mellon University.
My research interest revolves around smart city operations and sustainable operations. More specifically, I study the potential effects of innovative technologies, such as autonomous vehicles, on highway traffic congestion, parking and the sharing economy. In sustainable operations, I explore operational strategies that enhance environmental sustainability in packaging.
