Biography

I am a postdoctoral research associate in the Energy Systems Analysis Group (ESAG), a research unit at the Andlinger Center for Energy and the Environment, Princeton University. Before I obtained my PhD from Cambridge CARES, a joint program between University of Cambridge UK and Nanyang Technological University Singapore. My research interest centers on energy transition, lies in the intersection between system modeling, environmental assessment and economics analysis. I am also interested in the recent advances in artificial intelligence together with its impact on energy system design and operation.
