I am an assistant professor in the operations group at Olin Business School. 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 Olin, I received a B.Sc. in Mathematics from Duke University and a Ph.D. in Operations Management from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.
