I am a Post Doc Associate and hold a Ph.D. in Transportation Planning & Engineering, at New York University. My research focuses on highway infrastructure protection against sea level rise, using game theory to represent decision-makers’ behavior. This is a multi-disciplinary NSF funded project, applied in the San Francisco Bay area (http://riser.berkeley.edu/). We take into account how the hydrodynamics interact with the protection strategy, the resulting changes on the transportation network, drivers’ reaction and decision makers’ behavior.
Except for environmentally managed transportation systems, I am also interested in supply chain management and applied optimization, and my Masters dissertation is focused on the design of an optimization model that integrates inventory, distribution and production of perishable products. During my PhD I have also developed an interest in urban transportation, and have taken various related courses. Recently, I am focusing on machine learning applications on transportation.
