Welcome to my group page. I am an associate professor of Civil and environmental Engineering at MSU and AgBio Research and an affiliated faculty member in Environmental Science and Policy (ESPP). For more information about current and future group members, click here.
Approach
Our group uses proactive sustainability assessment to reduce the environmental impact of energy technologies. Process-based life-cycle assessment (LCA) combines theoretical environmental assessment with experimental work to identify critical steps in current technologies and guide greener alternatives.
In addition to photovoltaics, we have research projects related to batteries, nanomaterials synthesis, wastewater treatment, and pavement. We are also interested in exploring other sustainability-related research opportunities.
