Biography

With a keen interest in the industrial sector, I pursued Electrical Engineering, focusing on Power Electronics to contribute to renewable energy initiatives. My academic path, shaped by Professors Farhangi, Eini, and Karshenas, allowed me to integrate my curiosity with the evolving needs of the industry and the latest technological trends. My efforts in projects such as the "Modified Discontinuous PWM for Transformerless T-Type Inverters" and the "Advanced Solar Array Simulator" represent small but significant strides towards improving solar energy technologies. In collaboration with the University of Tehran and Kiel University, we sought to enhance the safety and functionality of DC power systems. As I continue my Ph.D. studies under Professor Goetz, I remain dedicated to the pursuit of knowledge in sustainable energy, hoping to make a modest yet impactful contribution to this vital field.
