Short Biography

I am an Associate Professor of Operations Strategy at the Coller School of Management, Tel Aviv University. I study how information shapes decision-making in supply chains and digital markets. My research examines how firms use and share information, and how this influences incentives, efficiency, and competition. I combine analytical modeling with economically grounded insights, with applications to platforms, contracting, and operations under uncertainty. My work has appeared in leading journals, including Management Science, Manufacturing & Service Operations Management, Marketing Science, and Production and Operations Management. Before joining Tel Aviv University, I was a visiting scholar at the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University, and held a visiting position at Yeshiva University in New York. I received my Ph.D. from Stanford University's Graduate School of Business, along with an M.S. in Statistics. I also hold an M.S. in Operations Research and a B.S. in Computer Science and Management from Tel Aviv University.
