Chenxi Sun
Our challenge is bigger, but our will is greater.

I am a final-year PhD student in Operations Management at CUHK Business School, where I am extremely fortunate to be advised by Professor Sean Zhou . I have also benefited greatly from the guidance and mentorship of Professor Xiting Gong .

Before joining CUHK, I received my bachelor's and master's degrees from the School of Information Management and Engineering at Shanghai University of Finance and Economics, where I was fortunate to be advised by Professor Chaolin Yang .

My research designs simple, implementable heuristic policies for complex operational problems whose optimal solutions are intractable or impractical to deploy, and establishes performance guarantees for these policies across different regimes. I am drawn to problems closely tied to everyday business practice, and I aim to provide solutions that firms can readily adopt while studying emerging business models.

My research interests include inventory management, supply chain management, stochastic inventory theory and its applications, and the operations–marketing interface.

I'm happy to discuss related topics and open to potential collaborations. Feel free to reach out! I am on the 2026-2027 academic job market.
