I am an associate professor and a Moore Fellow in the Management Science department at the Darla Moore School of Business in the University of South Carolina. I am interested in advancing the understanding of operational decision-making within and across organizations that are motivated by social and environmental considerations (such as UN Sustainable Development Goals). My current research efforts focus on nonprofit and sustainable operations.
My research has strong underpinnings in interactions with nonprofits (e.g., those empowering domestic violence survivors and homeless individuals), government organizations (e.g., those administering organ transplantation and child care subsidy programs), and social enterprises (e.g., farm equipment sharing platforms in emerging economies).
Besides my research, I am passionate about promoting belonging of LGBTQ+ individuals in the society. I had the privilege to serve the INFORMS community as the founding president of the PRIDE Forum (2023-2025).
