I am a Ph.D. candidate in Operations Management in Robert H. Smith School of Business at the University of Maryland. I am very fortunate to be co-advised by Wedad J. Elmaghraby and Kostas Bimpikis. I am excited about empirical and theoretical topics in online marketplace design and operations. My research interests build on empirical and theoretical problems in online marketplace design and operations. His current work focuses on supply-side operations in online B2B marketplaces and service platforms, including market thickness management, market expansion, and information provision policies.

I will join the Kelley School of Business, Indiana University, as an assistant professor of Business Analytics in Summer 2019.
