Background
  • PhD candidate in Industrial Engineering at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign
  • Affiliated with the Department of Industrial & Enterprise Systems Engineering and Coordinated Science Laboratory
  • Research spans game theory, online learning, social networks, and optimal control
  • Primary interests include equilibria of dynamic games, learning algorithm design for multi-agent systems, and online control in networks using techniques from game theory, optimization, multi-armed bandits, and reinforcement learning
  • Focuses on strategic resource allocation; broadly interested in market design, distributed systems, networked control, inverse game theory, and applications in cyber security, data privacy, traffic routing, and wireless communication
