I am a member of Dynamic Systems Control Laboratory (DSCL) and Engine Control Research Laboratory (ECRL) at the University of Houston working on my Ph.D. thesis under supervision of Professor Karolos Grigoriadis.

I was an intern in Research & Advanced Engineering at Ford Motor Company in the summer of 2008.
