Mission: My current mission is to design AI algorithms to help detect, prevent and understand the impacts of extreme environmental events on the built environment in urban areas.   


I am a program manager in the Energy Analytics Group in the Building Technology and Urban Systems Division in  at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory .


I am also a PhD student in Energy, Civil Infrastructure and Climate Science in the CEE department at UC Berkeley and a fellow at the Clean Energy Leadership Institute. 


In the past I've worked at Grameen Capital a micro-finance advisory;  Ashoka Innovators for the Public an organization that supports social entrepreneurs globally;  founded and ran a clean-tech start-up that was part of Australia's first clean technology start-up accelerator; and worked as a project engineer on HVAC and data center energy efficiency.  I have completed a Bachelors and Masters degree in engineering and am a certified project manager.  In my spare time, I am involved in small scale solar energy project development and implementation, and have worked on projects in Australia, Mozambique, Zimbabwe and Nigeria.  I enjoy cooking, photography, hiking, sailing and triathlon sprints!
