My research interests lie at the intersection of algorithm design under uncertainty and operations management. My work studies data-driven decision processes for revenue management and market design within the algorithmic economy, as well as applications in the public sector, focusing on cultural institutions and food security management.

I am an associate editor in Operations Research and Management Science. Before LBS, I was an applied scientist in the Marketplace Optimization group at Uber Technologies.  I worked and consulted for the Matching Science team to design and experiment with new matching and pricing algorithms. I received a PhD in Operations Research from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in 2017, where I collaborated with Profs. Vivek Farias, Retsef Levi, and Danny Segev. Before MIT, I earned an MS in Applied Mathematics from the Ecole Polytechnique (Paris) in 2013.  I was born in Meknes, Morocco.
