ABOUT ME

I have expertise and academic background in monitoring systems, measurement data analysis, data-driven control, renewable energy resource integration, and operations research applications in power systems. In recent years, I got engaged in machine learning, high dimensional data analysis and pattern recognition for power system applications.

Prior to joining FSU, I was a posdoc scholar in the California Institute for Energy and Environment, University of California, Berkeley working with Prof. Alexandra von Meier. Before UC Berkeley, I worked at Virginia Tech on the Distribution Engineering Workstation (a computer-aided engineering environment for studying distribution-system engineering) and with the Center for Energy and the Global Environment under supervision of Prof. Saifur Rahman and Prof. Robert Broadwater. From 2011 to 2013, I was a power engineer and software developer in EDD Inc., focusing on distribution networks modeling, power quality, distributed energy resource optimization, and distribution coordinated control for different utilities. I also have been a volunteer for Engineers Without Borders (EWB), working on installation and operation of solar energy systems in rural schools in Uganda.
