I am an assistant professor in the operations group at the Wisconsin School of Business. I study new “gig-economy” marketplaces for labor, like those created by the platforms like Uber. I use a mix of analytical and empirical tools to examine the optimal design of incentives in this setting and their implications for other market participants, such as workers and consumers.

Before joining WSB, I was an Assistant Professor at the Olin Business School of Washington University in St. Louis. I hold a B.Sc. in Mathematics from Duke University and a Ph.D. in Operations Management from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.
