His research explores machine learning (bandits, reinforcement learning, offline alignment techniques) and stochastic systems (load balancing, cloud computing). Recent work emphasizes differential privacy in federated learning, contextual bandits, and reinforcement learning frameworks. Publications span top venues like ICML, NeurIPS, and ICLR, with a focus on privacy-utility trade-offs and robust optimization.
Key scientific awards include the NSF CAREER Award, Best Student Paper at WiOpt 2022, and Ohio State University’s Presidential Fellowship. He actively contributes to teaching, offering graduate courses in online decision-making and undergraduate programming courses in electrical engineering.
