About
I am an Assistant Professor in the Electrical and Systems Engineering Department at the University of Pennsylvania. I am broadly interested in power electronics circuits and components and how to design and optimize power conversion systems for applications, such as high-performance computing, renewable energy, and medical devices. I was an visiting researcher in the circuits group at NVIDIA Research, working on data center power delivery. Before NVIDIA, I worked at Apple. I received my Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from Stanford in 2019.
Group
I lead the Penn Power Electronics Research Lab. My lab focuses on technology innovations centered around wide bandgap devices, high-frequency magnetic components, circuits and architectures, and others to improve the efficiency and shrink the requisite size of power conversion for a wide range of essential applications. Here highlights some of my past research.

Potential students
I will be taking new graduate students in the foreseeable future. If you are interested in working with me at Penn, please apply to Penn Engineering’s graduate program, and mention my name in your application. Please be mindful that I receive a large number of emails from prospective students asking me to evaluate their resumes and inquiring about research assistantships in my group. Please do not be discouraged if I do not respond or respond only with a short email due to limited bandwidth. I tend to take on 1-3 new students each year, and so I need to be selective and defer the evaluations and decisions until I see the entire pool of applicants in December. For master students, I recommend you take my course ESE5800 or ESE6710 first.
