Amanda Pratt
Ph.D. Student in Management Science and Engineering, admitted Autumn 2022
BioAmanda Pratt is a Ph.D. student in Management Science at Stanford University, where she is part of the Center for Work, Technology, and Organization. Her research interests include how organizations must change to adopt technology – particularly data and ML-based technologies - and how technology changes them. Prior to returning to school, Amanda was a Principal at Keystone Strategy, a technology-focused consulting firm. Amanda holds a bachelor's degree in engineering from Olin College, a master's degree in engineering from UC Berkeley, and an MBA from Harvard University.

Gary Qian
Ph.D. Student in Management Science and Engineering, admitted Autumn 2021
BioI am currently a 2nd year PhD student in Management Science and Engineering at Stanford working with Professor Margaret Brandeau. My research focuses on the development of applied mathematical, economic models, and machine learning models to support health policy decisions. My recent work has been focused on HIV prevention and treatment programs, programs to control US opioid epidemic, and policies for minimizing spread of infectious diseases (including COVID-19).
I am passionate about using optimization theory and machine learning to implement scalable solutions in solving complex, real-world problems including but not limited to applications in healthcare. -

Amin Saberi
Professor of Management Science and Engineering
BioAmin Saberi is Professor of Management Science and Engineering at Stanford University. He received his B.Sc. from Sharif University of Technology and his Ph.D. from Georgia Institute of Technology in Computer Science. His research interests include algorithms, design and analysis of social networks, and applications. He is a recipient of the Terman Fellowship, Alfred Sloan Fellowship and several best paper awards.
Amin was the founding CEO and chairman of NovoEd Inc., a social learning environment designed in his research lab and used by universities such as Stanford as well as non-profit and for-profit institutions for offering courses to hundreds of thousands of learners around the world. -
Michael Saunders
Professor (Research) of Management Science and Engineering, Emeritus
BioSaunders develops mathematical methods for solving large-scale constrained optimization problems and large systems of equations. He also implements such methods as general-purpose software to allow their use in many areas of engineering, science, and business. He is co-developer of the large-scale optimizers MINOS, SNOPT, SQOPT, PDCO, the dense QP and NLP solvers LSSOL, QPOPT, NPSOL, and the linear equation solvers SYMMLQ, MINRES, MINRES-QLP, LSQR, LSMR, LSLQ, LNLQ, LSRN, LUSOL.

Patrick Sheehan
Postdoctoral Scholar, Management Science and Engineering
BioPatrick Sheehan a Post-Doctoral scholar in the Work, Technology, and Organizations group at MS&E. He is an ethnographer and economic sociologist who studies work, culture, and technological innovation. His research focuses on elite professional employment as an entryway for understanding cultural transformations to contemporary capitalism. Ongoing projects investigate the puzzling rise of “career coaches” as self-styled “experts” in career management, and an ethnographic study of “hype culture" in Silicon Valley start-ups.
His work has been published in American Journal of Sociology, Annual Review of Sociology, and Work & Occupations, and has received best-paper awards from the American Sociological Associuation sections on Cultural Sociology; Organizations, Occupations, and Work; and Economic Sociology.
Patrick earned a BA from the University of California, Santa Barbara and a PhD from the University of Texas at Austin. -
Aaron Sidford
Associate Professor of Management Science and Engineering and of Computer Science
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research interests lie broadly in the optimization, the theory of computation, and the design and analysis of algorithms. I am particularly interested in work at the intersection of continuous optimization, graph theory, numerical linear algebra, and data structures.

Rosanne Marie Siino
Lecturer
BioRosanne was on the founding team of Netscape in the 1990s. She brings the same creativity, “think big” attitude and positive energy that launched the first commercially successful web browser to her teaching and consulting. After a long career in high-tech marketing, Rosanne received a doctorate in Management Science and Engineering from Stanford, where she has been a lecturer since 2007. Rosanne teaches undergraduate and graduate classes in organizational dynamics, and advises technology companies, startups, and nonprofits on effective teamwork, management and messaging.
