My research focuses on healthcare operations management, leveraging large language models, machine learning, empirical econometrics, and laboratory experiments to address operational challenges in healthcare. I am particularly interested in developing data-driven and AI-enabled approaches that improve decision-making in complex healthcare systems.

I was a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Public Impact Analytics Science Lab (PIAS-Lab), Harvard University, where I worked with Prof. Soroush Saghafian. I received my Ph.D. from the Naveen Jindal School of Management at The University of Texas at Dallas, where I was advised by Prof. Guihua Wang and Prof. Elena Katok. I was also fortunate to have worked with Prof. Tinglong Dai and Prof. Gary Bolton. Prior to my doctoral studies, I earned a B.S.E. in Mechanical Engineering from Shanghai Jiao Tong University and both a B.S.E. and an M.S. in Industrial and Operations Engineering from the University of Michigan.
