As a high school student, Elkind competed for the Estonian team in the International Mathematical Olympiads in 1992 and 1993.[2] She earned a master's degree at Moscow State University in 1998,[3] and completed her Ph.D. in 2005 from Princeton University. Her dissertation, Computational Issues in Optimal Auction Design, was supervised by Amit Sahai.[4]

After completing her Ph.D., she was a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Warwick, the University of Liverpool, and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. She became a lecturer at the University of Southampton and an assistant professor at Nanyang Technological University.
