About me

I am interested in designing computational algorithms that address supply chains and operations challenges, by combining methods from Combinatorial Optimization, Stochastic Optimization, Machine Learning and Lean- Six Sigma. Currently, I am working on applying Scenario Reduction algorithms in Stochastic Optimization to solve problems in Capacitated Facility Location and Network design & routing. The results of this work will contribute to SMS++, a high-performance mathematical modeling system written in modern C++. My expertise bridges data science with practical business solutions in supply chain management, and operation excellence. See my CV for more details.
