I am an Energy Systems Engineer in Argonne National Laboratory.
I was a postdoc associate in MIT Energy Initiative and LIDS, working with Dr. Audun Botterud and Dr. Apurba Sakti. I received my Ph.D. degree in the Department of Information Engineering, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, under the supervison of Prof. Jianwei Huang.
My main research interests are in the optimization, game theory, and mechanism design of power and energy systems.
