With over a decade of experience in power systems engineering, I currently serve as a Lead Project Engineer at Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories (SEL). My expertise lies in coding algorithms for load shedding, generation shedding, and runback systems following IEC61131-3 standards. Additionally, I contribute to the development of static and dynamic models for power systems using UPF and RTDS to support static, dynamic, and transient simulations for our power management projects. At SEL, I oversee the full lifecycle of power management projects, ensuring high-quality coding, documentation, and validation deliverables. This includes creating functional design specifications, detailed design documents, and facilitating FAT and SAT processes. By leveraging my technical skills and collaborative mindset, I support the delivery of efficient, reliable, and innovative solutions tailored to diverse client requirements.
