I am an Operations Research PhD student at the H. Milton Stewart School of Industrial and Systems Engineering (ISyE) at the Georgia Institute of Technology.
My research is applying modern machine learning and optimization methods to causal inference. In particular, I am interested in re-examining the estimation of the Conditional Average Treatment Effect and the Variable Treatment Intensity under the lens of modern optimization methods.
I am advised by Professor Turgay Ayer
Before this, I did my undergraduate in Cornell University, where I graduated in May 2017 with a double major in Computer Science and Operations Research.
