I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Information and Decision Sciences at Carlson School of Management, University of Minnesota. I study algorithmic decision-making from both a “make” perspective and a “use” perspective. From the make perspective, I design theoretically robust and computationally efficient algorithms to support decision-making in information-intensive environment. From the use perspective, I examine the antecedents of algorithmic decision-making as well as its impact on decision quality, fairness, and privacy. My aspiration is to study real problems and develop practical solutions to support individual and organizational decision-making.

Before joining Carlson, I was an Assistant Professor in the Department of Operations and Decision Technologies at Kelley School of Business, Indiana University. I received my Ph.D. from the Department of Information and Decision Sciences at Carlson School of Management, University of Minnesota. I obtained my bachelor’s degree in Information Systems and Information Management from the School of Economics and Management at Tsinghua University.

I have consulted for a wide range of companies including Sun Country Airlines, The Good Acre, Smart Care Equipment Solutions, Calabrio, Second Harvest Heartland, CSI, POI-TECH, and Sunresin.
