Biography

I'm Saman Mohsenirad, and I recently completed my PhD in Industrial and Systems Engineering at Virginia Tech, where my research focused on operations research and machine learning for performance measurement of complex systems under data-limited conditions.

I now work as a Postdoctoral Associate in Transportation Packaging and Distribution Systems Research, supporting wood-crate vibration testing and cold-chain decision modeling across transport lanes. My focus is on translating physical experimental data into practical, data-driven decisions that improve packaging and logistics performance.
