  In my role at StoreDot, I am the Team Leader for Materials and Cell Characterization, specializing in the field of extreme fast charging (XFC) for electric vehicles (EVs). My focus is on materials science and engineering, with an emphasis on characterizing cells and materials for applications involving rapid charging. As the team leader, I lead a group of scientists and engineers in conducting advanced analysis, testing, and evaluation of materials and cells to support our research and development efforts in the EV battery sector. By closely collaborating with cross-functional teams, I drive innovation and ensure the successful execution of projects aimed at developing XFC solutions. Show less

  Current lithium-ion chemistries are based on flammable organic solvents presenting undesired safety, durability, uncontrolled reactivity and environmental impacts. As group leader for next generation, safer, and eco-friendly lithium ion battery chemistries, I conduct studies based on silicon nanostructure anodes and liquid siloxane electrolytes. My team presented a safer chemistry feasible for lithium-sulfur, and lithium-silicon batteries following this study. These findings were published in several high-impact peer-reviewed journals referenced in my résumé. For my accumulated achievements and research, I was nominated for The 2019 Eric and Sheila Samson Prime Minister's Prize for Groundbreaking Innovation in Alternative Fuels. Show less

  The safe and effective operation of the lithium-ion battery acutely depends on the formation of a stable ion conducting, but electronically insulating solid thin film at the electrode/electrolyte interface. At UC Berkeley, I led a team to selectively probe the composition and structure of electrified interfaces by adapting a surface specific, non-linear, vibrational spectroscopy. We showed that the liquid electrolyte structure at the interface affects the current and capacity (and other macro-properties) of the lithium-ion battery. Additionally, I collaborated on and coordinated research programs with groups from Honda USA, Stanford, and Texas A&M University. Show less

  At LBNL, I led a team in projects concerning the interface structure of alternative fuel chemistries (Fischer-Tropsch), and molecular electronics (bovine serum albumin proteins). I published these findings in several high-impact peer-reviewed journals referenced in my résumé. Additionally, I collaborated on and coordinated research programs with groups from Honda USA, Stanford, Tel Aviv University, and Texas A&M University.
