I am interested in designing computational algorithms that address supply chains and operations challenges, by combining methods from Combinatorial Optimization, Robust Optimization, Network design & routing, Machine Learning and Lean- Six Sigma. Currently, I am working on the seamless integration of Machine Learning and Optimization with applications in data-driven decision-making under uncertainty. My expertise bridges data science with practical business solutions in supply chain management, and operation excellence. See my CV for more details.
