Other
I have a deep understanding of the electricity and public sectors, with experience in reviewing regulatory applications for electric facilities and rates applications and conducting technical studies for potential transmission developments and/or upgrades. I am passionate about electricity communication and outreach, and developing power system educational content that can be understood by professionals of all backgrounds. I am also interested in policy and ensuring policy decisions around electricity consider engineering fundamentals and the physics of power systems. One of my specialties is communicating complex concepts in simple language.
