Profile

My research interests are at the intersection of behavioural operations and supply chain, risk, sustainability/ethics and technology management.

In particular, most of my projects are on decision making processes surrounding supplier sustainability risks or technology adoption in supply chains. My research is primarily empirical and field research and I am engaged with industry and broader stakeholders in my research. I am on editorial boards of Decision Sciences Journal (reviewer) , Journal of Supply Chain Management (Associate Editor and Reviewer), Journal of Business Logistics (Guest EIC and Senior Editor), and International Journal of Production Economics (Reviewer).
