Bio

Hi, I'm Sahar Ebrahimi Bajgani — researcher, educator, and tech enthusiast working at the intersection of business, data, and innovation.

I’m currently an Assistant Professor of Business Administration at Wartburg College, where I teach courses in Accounting, Business Finance, and Data Analysis. I earned my Ph.D. in Business Administration from Worcester Polytechnic Institute, specializing in Operations Management and Empirical Methods.

At my core, I’m fascinated by how technology transforms industries—and that fascination fuels both my research and my teaching. My work explores how emerging technologies like blockchain can reshape supply chains and reverse logistics to be more sustainable, agile, and resilient. I combine game theory and real-world data to develop models that solve practical problems and drive meaningful impact.

One of the pivotal moments in my research journey was at the Block Magic Hackathon, where I pushed beyond my academic comfort zone to build a zero-knowledge-proof smart contract. That hands-on experience not only sharpened my technical skills, but also deepened my commitment to exploring tech-driven solutions to global business challenges.

In the classroom, my approach is learning-centered and future-focused. I strive to create an engaging environment that prepares students for the real world—through active discussions around current business problems, evidence-based teaching strategies, and tools like self-testing flashcards to strengthen memory and understanding. I’m all about helping students connect concepts to career-ready skills.

If you're curious about transforming supply chains, using data and tech to solve real-world problems, or rethinking how we teach and learn business—let’s connect. I’m always up for conversations, collaborations, or co-creating something innovative.
