I am a Power Engineering Manager responsible for the management of Power System’s Strategic Initiatives –including the development and implementation of a strategic plan, relicensing of a pumped-storage hydro plant with FERC, leading special projects that require cross-functional engagement with key staff across the Power System and external stakeholders, and monitoring, reviewing, and evaluating system-wide Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). I have been with LADWP for about 15 years with duties spanning from substation design to project management and contracts. I hold an undergraduate degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering and a Master’s degree in Business Administration with emphasis in finance. I am also a registered Electrical Engineer in the State of CA.
