About
Undergraduate Researcher · Clean Energy Transformation Lab (CETlab)
I am an electrical engineering student at UC Santa Barbara and an undergraduate researcher in the Clean Energy Transformation Lab.
My current research focuses on constructing transmission-grid models from open infrastructure data and developing software to reconstruct, diagnose, validate, and compare network topology.
At CETlab, these transmission-grid models are used to study how electricity systems in different countries can decarbonize in an economically and politically feasible manner. The lab uses these models to evaluate questions such as capacity expansion, production costs, and resource adequacy.
Research interests
I am interested in large-scale power system operation. My broad focus is combining optimization, control, and machine learning to make grid operation more adaptive, computationally efficient, and reliable.
