Welcome
I am a fourth year Ph.D. student in Management Science/ Operations Research at The University of Chicago, Booth School of Business. My research advisors are René Caldentey and Rad Niazadeh.
I am interested in studying the interplay of Economics and Computer Science and enjoy looking at the real world problems using a mathematical lens. In particular, I am passionate about applying Online Algorithms and Information Design to practical challenges in Two-Sided Markets and Revenue Management.
I completed my undergraduate degree in Computer Engineering at Sharif University of Technology, Iran. Before joining Booth, I did a master’s in Finance & Economics at London School of Economics, UK.
