She has led projects on international energy dynamics and efficiency, including field research in China as a Fulbright Fellow, which gives her a rare on-the-ground perspective on Sino-global energy transitions. Known for bridging technical modeling and strategic communications, she has helped shape low-carbon policy while working inside advocacy, academic, and consulting settings. Based in the Washington DC–Baltimore area, she combines scholarly rigor with practical insights that decision-makers can act on.
