My research develops efficient algorithms for societal-scale problems in electric power networks. At the interface of statistics and optimization, I exploit domain structure—such as power flow physics, spectral graph properties, and communication protocols—to improve scalability and reliability. My broader vision is to treat randomness as a resource to transform how the grid is operated, drawing on tools such as randomized numerical linear algebra.
