I am a Postdoctoral Fellow specializing in Built Environment and Energy Technology. My research and teaching activities concentrate on sustainability issues, examining the dynamic relationships between buildings, energy systems, and the environment. With a background in both Energy Technology and Mechanical Engineering, I am equipped to tackle complex challenges at the intersection of these disciplines

Research

My research looks at how different parts of an urban energy system—like buildings, infrastructure, and energy networks—work together to shape a city’s overall energy performance. Using urban energy modeling, I study how factors such as building types, HVAC systems, and renewable energy sources affect energy use across a city. I also evaluate the long-term energy, environmental, and economic impacts of urban development and identify potential risks to help create more resilient and sustainable cities.
