About me

headshot-wenyi-1I am an assistant professor at the Department of Logistics and Operations Management, HEC Montréal. I obtained my PhD from Sauder School of Business, University of British Columbia. My core expertise lies at the intersection of data analytics and transportation operations. I am interested in developing cutting-edge methods to study passenger choice behaviors, using empirical methods and data-driven techniques. With a better understanding of travel behaviour, I try to derive prescriptive solutions for practical transportation and logistics problems and design transportation policies and systems for better outcomes. I also study how to enhance the resilience and adaptability of the vulnerable transportation infrastructure to climate change. In addition, I investigate the interactions among different transportation modes and provides insights on managing intermodal transportation systems. I have published in several peer-reviewed journals, including Transportation Research Part A/B/D. I won the Young Author Best Paper Prize at 14th World Conference on Transportation Research.
