About
I'm a senior electrical engineering student at Boise State University (B.S. expected 2027) focused on power electronics and power systems. Renewable energy sits exactly where those two meet, so that's where most of my work lands — photovoltaics, inverters, and the grid that ties them together.
Right now I'm an electrical engineering intern at Ulteig, reviewing distributed energy resource (DER) interconnection applications — about 40 a week — against Xcel Energy's interconnection standards. Before that, I built solar-powered field hardware through Boise State's Vertically Integrated Projects program and modeled residential PV economics in NREL's System Advisor Model.
I like working both sides of the discipline: the hands-on lab work of building and debugging real hardware, and the analysis and simulation that make power systems trustworthy at scale. I'm currently exploring industry roles and graduate programs in power engineering.

I'm interested in power-industry roles, internships, and graduate programs — and always glad to talk renewables, inverters, or nest-box cameras.
