About me

I’m a Power Electronics & EMC Engineer at Ford Motor Company, where I focus on EMI modeling, mitigation, and immunity improvement for power electronics systems. I hold a Ph.D. from the University of Florida, where my research centered on EMI reduction for DC/DC and DC/AC power converters, high-frequency magnetic components, power module design, and wireless charging — building a strong theoretical foundation in EMI modeling and mitigation, complemented by 5+ years of hands-on EMC experience.

Core focus areas:

  • EMI modeling and analysis combining physics-based approaches (EM theory and circuit-level modeling) with data-driven techniques (automated simulation and EMC modeling workflows) — for power electronics systems
  • EMI noise mitigation through optimized EMI filter/grounding/shielding design, critical parasitics mitigation/control, EMI-free component design, and system-level EMC optimization
  • Immunity modeling and improvement for PCB-level design
  • Hands-on experience and strong knowledge of EMI/immunity test procedures and standards
  • Additional power electronics experience: DC-DC control, stability analysis, wireless charging, and magnetic component modeling

I’m passionate about the intersection of power electronics and electromagnetic compatibility — where clean, efficient power conversion has to coexist with an increasingly complex electrical environment.
