I am assisting Dr. Rajneesh Suri, Associate Professor, Marketing Department in his research to perceive the human cognitive behavior on product pricing. I design and run surveys to collect research data using DirectRT; Advanced "Reaction Time" Capture software. I even design surveys using PowerPoint which test the Consumer Behavior over the price and location of the product.

In addition to the research, I conduct recitation classes for "Introduction to Marketing Management" at the LeBow College of Business (Undergraduate Coursework). The recitation involves teaching the basic Marketing concepts like 4 P's and 4 C's of Marketing, Boston Consulting Group (BCG) Matrix, Product Life-cycle, Distribution Channels, Break-Even point analysis etc. Then, I use PharmaSim, a marketing simulation game, where the students form teams to run a complete marketing strategy for a pharmaceutical company and compete against each other on the Stock Price.
