Assistant Professor, Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering, College of Engineering
I am an assistant professor of Industrial Engineering at the University of Massachusetts (UMass) at Amherst. I joined UMass in the Fall of 2008. I obtained my PhD from the Industrial Engineering department at Arizona State University in August 2006. From Aug 2006-August 2008, I worked as a Postdoctoral Research Associate in the Department of Health Sciences Research at the Mayo Clinic, a large academic medical institution in Rochester, Minnesota.
My primary research interests are broadly in operations research applied to healthcare delivery. Some examples: I've worked on planning and scheduling of surgical suites; designing primary care physician panels to maximize timeliness and patient-physician continuity; and optimization of prostate cancer screening decisions. I have also recently begun looking at improving emergency room operations and capacity planning in hospitals.
