Research Interests

Systems and control theory. Modelling, analysis and design of dynamical systems. Currently working on data-driven control methodologies with applications to power systems.

Brief Bio

I am pursuing a PhD in Mechanical Engineering at the Algorithms, Optimization and Controls Lab at the University of British Columbia supervised by Dr. Dominic Liao-McPherson and Dr. Alberto Padoan. My research interests lie at the intersection of control, optimization, and complex engineering systems.

I previously completed an MSc in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Calgary under the supervision of Dr. Craig Johansen in the Aerospace and Compressible Flow Research (AERO-CORE) Group. My master’s research focused on hybrid rocket propulsion, where I developed a semi-empirical model for secondary fluid injection thrust vector control (see my thesis).

I completed a BSc in Mechanical Engineering with a Minor in Mechatronics, and received over 20 awards and scholarships, including two Governor General’s Medals and the Seymour Schulich Scholarship. During my undergraduate studies, I helped lead the successful launch of three student-designed and manufactured rockets.

Across my research and teaching activities, I enjoy communicating complex ideas clearly and creatively and bridging theory with real-world systems. Thanks for checking out my website - I’m always happy to discuss my research or related projects.
