    Research Assistant

    Stanford Sustainable Systems Lab (S3L) - Stanford University
    Oct 2022 - Present
  • Work on research and development projects focused on applying Artificial Intelligence and Optimization techniques to energy systems.
  • Main activities: deliver presentations; write technical/progress reports; implement code for numerical tests; and write scientific documents (papers, patents and research proposals).
  • AI/Optimization Resident

    X, the moonshot factory
    Jul 2024 - Sep 2024
  • AI/Optimization Resident at X (formely Google X) working on Tapestry - a moonshot for decarbonizing the electrical grid.
  • Teaching Assistant

    Stanford University
    Mar 2024 - Jun 2024
  • CEE 272R: Engineering Future Electricity Systems - The electricity grid is undergoing a dramatic transformation due to the urgency to decarbonize, improve resilience against climate-induced extreme weather events, and provide affordable reliable access to at-risk communities. This fast-paced course aims to build a systematic understanding of the future electric power grid.
  • Led discussion sessions, held office hours, mentored final projects, and created and graded homework and exams.
