My current role at Husqvarna Group as a battery cell commodity associate allows me to utilize my technical background in LIB cell chemistry while gaining invaluable experience in the commercial world dealing with supplier relations and progressing the companies strategic electrification ambitions. In early 2022, I finished my master thesis at Helmholtz Institute Ulm in the advanced balancing of silicon-nanowire anodes with pre-lithiated high-energy lithium-rich cathodes using lithium oxalate as a cathode additive. My master’s degree work focuses on electrochemistry, materials science, and overall societal, economic, and ecological drivers for advancements in energy technology and the different uses there-of. There is an emphasis on transport and thermodynamics fundamentals of battery materials as well as hands-on lab projects such as electrical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and XPS. In my previous leadership position as shift process engineer for SR Tritium Enterprises (US-Aiken, SC), I coordinated with operations shift managers, maintenance, quality and environmental teams to provide high-quality tritium products to the US Department of Energy. This radioactive gas process required intense precautions for the safety of all employees and the general public. I was the sole engineer on shift, which required excellent technical knowledge of hydrogen processing and leadership of operations personnel. I was responsible for writing operating procedures, shift logs, and safe isolation guidance for system maintenance. I was also required to independently identify and solve key process issues or deviations. As part of the emergency response team, I was highly in the response and reporting of abnormal events to ensure the safety of both employees and the general public. These responsibilities bolstered my leadership, time-management, and communication skills. I also offer relevant knowledge in chemical processing.
