About me
I am currently a Research Fellow in Multi-Hazard Risk and Resilience Modeling in the Department of Civil, Environmental and Geomatic Engineering at University College London (UCL). I am supervised by Dr. Carmine Galasso and work on the Minority Report project.
My research focuses on: (1) decision-making under deep uncertainty, particularly for climate adaptation strategies in coastal communities and sustainable energy transitions; and (2) risk analysis of renewable energy systems, such as wind turbines.
Prior to joining UCL, I earned my Ph.D. in Structural Engineering from Lehigh University, advised by Dr. Paolo Bocchini. My doctoral research focused on the risk analysis of electric power systems under natural hazards, including wildfires and hurricanes.
In my spare time, I enjoy running and reading. I’m also a seasonal sucker for ice cream and nuts (allegedly emotional/revenge eating).

Magic Paper Length

Is there a magic number of pages for a paper? I studied three example researchers that I admire: Dr. Soda, Dr. Jelly, and Dr. Butter.
