Research

I develop uncertainty-aware optimization and decision-making methods for mobility and energy systems, with emphasis on EV-grid coordination, online control, and data-driven infrastructure operations. My work combines MILP, MPC, reinforcement learning, and multi-agent negotiation to make robust real-time decisions under uncertainty.

Research Focus

🔋

Vehicle-to-Building (V2B)

Online control under uncertain EV arrivals, building loads, and user behavior, balancing user utility with grid objectives.

🎯

Sequential Decisions Under Uncertainty

Scenario generation, stochastic optimization, MCTS, and rolling-horizon MPC for real-time cyber-physical control.

🤝

Multi-Agent Coordination

Strategy-aware incentive mechanisms and negotiation frameworks that align individual agents with system-level goals.

Beyond Research

Outside the lab, I build things in both software and hardware. I design and fly RC planes and drones, use 3D printing for rapid prototyping, and bring a strong hardware foundation from my undergraduate background in Electronics and Communication Engineering. I also enjoy reading comics and participating in the maker community.
