Welcome

I’m Jeremy, a Postdoctoral Scholar hosted by Edith Elkind, at the Northwestern University Department of Computer Science. Prior to joining Northwestern, I completed a PhD in the Algorithmic Decision Theory group at University of New South Wales, where I was advised by Haris Aziz. I am broadly interested in topics at the intersection of microeconomic theory and algorithmics.

Here is my CV (updated November 2024).
