Energy sustainability is one of the world's major ongoing challenges. Over the past several years, I have focused my efforts on transitioning the world to a cleaner energy future.While I have a background in mechanical design, my expertise lies in system-level problem solving, particularly large-scale thermal systems. My work typically encompasses conceptual engineering and system modeling, where I challenge traditional design with novel approaches that drive down costs and increase efficiency. I use a physics-based first principles approach to understand real constraints and identify unusual and innovative solutions.Specialties: - Advanced thermodynamics and heat transfer modeling/simulation- Novel conceptual system design- Innovations in energy efficient products
