Three connected areas of work

My work examines how energy and computing infrastructure should be planned when engineering limits, spatial resources, policy, and investment decisions interact. The projects combine optimization, power system modeling, and applied AI to turn those constraints into transparent choices.

The portfolio is organized around three connected areas. One develops faster tools for grid planning, one determines where clean infrastructure can be built, and one evaluates how technology and policy choices shape decarbonization pathways.
