Welcome to My Website
I am currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at North Carolina A&T State University. Before joining NCAT in January 2021, I was postdoctoral associates at the Center of Energy Economic & Environmental Policies, Rutgers University, New Jersey (2019-2020), at the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Utah (2018-2019), and at the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Iowa State University (2017-2018). I received my Ph.D. degree from the Institut National de la Recherche Scientifique (INRS) at the University of Quebec in April 2017. I received my M.Eng. degree in Electrical Engineering from Southern Taiwan University, Taiwan, in 2012 and my B.S. degree in Control Automation from Hanoi University of Science and Technology, Vietnam, in 2010.
