Top SchoolJeisson Prieto is a computational sustainability researcher and entrepreneur with 10 years of experience blending data science, optimization and software engineering to tackle climate, food-water-energy and resource-allocation problems. As a Graduate Research Assistant at Cornell and a former Head of Data Science and Co-Founder/CTO of Mandatum, he builds AI-driven platforms and e-commerce solutions that nudge sustainable consumer choices while delivering measurable economic benefits for merchants. His academic work bridges applied economics and applied mathematics—spanning drought impacts on water use, agri-food supply chains, biodiversity finance, and pandemic- and disease-risk allocation—often using network models and optimization methods. Comfortable moving between research, teaching, and product development, he pairs rigorous, collaborative science with hands-on implementation of web and mobile dashboards and optimization routines for real-world decision support. An intriguing strength is his track record of translating complex epidemiological and ecological models into practical systems for policy and industry use.
