Research Interests
My research focuses on modeling the reliability of conventional silicon PV modules and new-generation perovskite modules, which is important as we make the shift to renewables and away from fossil fuels!
Feel free to check out the projects that I’m working on below, and reach out if you'd like to discuss getting involved with the group! In my free time, I like to play tennis, swim, check out tattoo art, and listening to rock music.
Projects:
Adhesion and Reliability Modeling of Photovoltaic Modules with Fracture Mechanics and Chemical Kinetics
High-Throughput Thermal Imaging Chamber (HITCH) Monitoring of Perovskite Device Stability
