I am an Associate Professor of Industrial & Systems Engineering and Computer Science at the University of Southern California, and a Co-Director of the CAIS Center for Artificial Intelligence in Society. I hold a Viterbi Early Career Chair in Engineering and before that held a WiSE Gabilan Assistant Professorship. Through my research, I aim to advance integer, stochastic, and robust optimization, and their interface with machine learning, causal inference, and economics to enable the design of predictive and prescriptive models that are robust, interpretable, and fair, being suitable to deploy in high-stakes settings.
