I’m starting three data collaborator opportunities. Feel free to reach out, I’m open to research collaboration or just talking together.

Hi there, I would be delighted to meet and chat in person.

• I’ll be at the INFORMS Healthcare Conference, July 28-29, 2026. Raleigh NC

1. I recently shared my VN project at the Virtual Health System Round Table, which brought together 12 health systems (in and outside North Carolina) with attendees ranging from leaders of innovation centers to C-suite executives, on June 20, 2025.

2. I recently shared my virtual nurse project journey, which involved understanding data structures, identifying relevant data elements, and performing causality analysis, with a U.S.-leading virtual care platform on October 30, 2025.

First time on film: This September, representing all the PHD students at UNC Business School, I attended the filming for UNC Business School’s new building’s opening ceremony. It was fun and a new experience!

This May, I’ve got the first teaching award, UNC Business School Latané Outstanding Student Teaching Award.

According to our PhD Program Coordinator Ali Parlaktürk, “This is a well-deserved honor–Blair did a fabulous job teaching BUSI 403, also served as teaching assistant for several key courses. I reached out to the instructors of those courses, and all enthusiastically supported her nomination.”

I’m so grateful for our Operations Area, all the faculties, lecturers, and prior PhD students for coaching me on teaching.
