About

I am a faculty member at The University of Virginia. I am an expert in data science and analytics. My research topics are related to the societal impacts and economics of AI, data science and business analytics, user-generated content, and healthcare information systems. I use machine learning, deep learning, natural language processing (NLP), and econometrics to identify quasi-experimental settings and study the underlying relationships among the constructs of interest. My work has appeared in ISR, JMIS, JAIS, and PRQ. My work has also been presented at international and national conferences such as CIST, WITS, WISE, ICIS, HICSS, and AMCIS. I have taught advanced data science and business analytics, research methods, computer programming, and project management at the undergraduate, master, and doctorate levels. I have worked with leading consulting firms on various data science projects. Before joining academia, I was a lead data scientist at State Farm Insurance Co..
