As a Federal Program Manager at the U.S. Department of Energy, I oversee the allocation and distribution of federal funding for matters related to the deployment of molten salt reactors, a promising technology for clean and safe nuclear energy. With a PhD in Chemical Engineering and over eight years of combined experience in academia and industry, I have developed a deep expertise and passion for molten salt electrochemistry and its applications for nuclear waste processing and recycling.Prior to joining the DOE, I worked as a Research Staff at Brigham Young University, where I managed several research projects and students related to plutonium electrorefining. I also completed my doctoral dissertation under the direction of Dr. Devin Rappleye and Dr. John Harb ,renowned leaders in the field of molten salt systems and electrochemistry. My research contributed to the advancement of the state-of-the-art knowledge and simulation of electrochemical phenomena in molten salt environments. I have published multiple papers and presented at several conferences on this topic. I am always eager to learn new skills and collaborate with other experts and stakeholders in the nuclear and molten salt industry. My goal is to leverage my knowledge and experience to support and promote the development and deployment of innovative and sustainable nuclear solutions.
