About
Mechanical engineering student at UC Berkeley interested in robotics, materials, and space. Currently working on the high-voltage accumulator as a part of Berkeley Formula Electric, while researching thin-film oxide heterostructures for next-gen low-power memory in Ramesh Lab.
Also developing Atlas SMR, a website to evaluate grid capabilities of small modular nuclear reactors and hybrid SMR/renewable energy systems, to inform cost-effective strategies for clean-energy transitions. View all projects →
