PhD Student,
Electrical Engineering
Bio

I earned my master’s degree in 2020 in Iran, where I explored effective parameters of PIN silicon diodes in direct X-ray detectors. Driven by my interest in clean energy, I then moved to Arizona State University to pursue a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering in the Defect Lab, where my research focuses on understanding and improving the crystal quality of photovoltaic materials to boost solar cell performance. Beyond the lab, I recharge by running, hiking in nature, and practicing the piano.
