Stivi Canka
Masters Student in Management Science and Engineering, admitted Autumn 2026
BioI am a master's student in Management Science & Engineering, working on optimization and machine learning applied to the infrastructure that makes the world run, spanning manufacturing, logistics, and connectivity.
My background is in economics and mathematics, followed by work in market risk and in technology risk consulting. Across both, the recurring pattern was the same: most of the world is a set of large, poorly specified optimization problems, and comparatively few of them have been solved. At Stanford I am focused on the computational and statistical tools for attacking these problems at scale, with a particular interest in operations problems in emerging markets.
Outside my coursework, I founded Albanian Trailblazers, a mentorship network connecting Albanian students from disadvantaged backgrounds with mentors across more than twenty countries. -
Shawn Carrier
Masters Student in Civil and Environmental Engineering, admitted Autumn 2026
BioPersonal Information: I am from Levis, Quebec, Canada. I am fluent in English and French. I know the basics of Spanish, however I am not fully fluent in this language.
Academic History: I successfully completed and passed the FE Civil Exam in May 2026. I graduated at the top of my civil engineering class at the University of New Brunswick with a Bachelor's of Science in Engineering. During this degree, I received 20 academic awards excluding my NSERC USRAs and my Dean's List awards which I received every year.
Undergraduate Research Work: I spent two summers working with UNB's Smart Structures Research Group. Over these two terms, I was awarded two NSERC USRA awards. My main focus within the group was to program a MATLAB app to visualize and label accelerometer and strain sensor data from an instrumented bridge. For more information about my research work (including pictures displaying this app), please refer to my resume.
