Bio

I am a Marketing Ph.D. candidate in the Tepper School of Business at Carnegie Mellon University. I use and combine Bayesian {statistics, machine learning and econometrics} to (1) build predictive models of browsing and buying behavior using unstructured data (2) flexibly model consumer behavior and make policy recommendations for pricing and promotional strategies.

Interested in my research or in collaborating? Feel free to email me at samlevy@cmu.edu. You can also find me on LinkedIn.
