About

Bridging Economics & Engineering

My research sits at the intersection of economic theory and computational methods. As a Ph.D. candidate at Tel Aviv University under the supervision of Prof. Zvika Neeman, I develop algorithmic mechanisms that tackle fundamental questions in resource allocation — from optimizing broadband infrastructure in underserved communities to designing combinatorial auctions with overlapping offers. I am also a Junior Academic Faculty member, teaching economics to engineering students and building bridges between these disciplines.

Mechanism Design

Designing allocation rules and auction formats that align individual incentives with collective welfare.

Game Theory

Analyzing strategic interactions among rational agents in market and infrastructure settings.

Infrastructure Policy

Applying economic theory to real-world broadband deployment and public resource allocation problems.

Algorithmic Approach

Building computational models using LP relaxation, Dual-Simplex methods, and custom MATLAB solvers.
