Student comments from course evaluations:

"As a lecturer, Jiayi explains everything clearly in class based on her fundamental knowledge. She is also good at breaking down hard concepts, and giving methodical guidance to us students. I am impressed by her comprehensive review on joint-location-and-inventory problems, and her ability of encouraging shy students to stand in front of the class and share their personal ideas. I benefited a lot from her teaching, and chose location problem as my future research direction since then. "
