I am currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Information Systems at the School of Business, Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU). Starting in July 2024, I will be joining Wake Forest University (WFU) as an Assistant Professor of Business Analytics. My research interests lie primarily in the area of Healthcare Information Technology (HIT), Digital Platform, and Artificial Intelligence (AI). Below, I provide more specific areas of my current research:

• Patient-Centric IT to Improve Healthcare Outcomes and Disparities,

• Platforms' Entry and Antitrust Regulation,

• Multi-Sided Platforms and Competition Strategies,

• Decision Support Systems in Social Media Platforms.

In studying these topics, I use game theory, applied econometrics & machine learning, and optimization methods.
