PhD Researcher · DTUSoftware Developer

I'm a PhD candidate at DTU and an energy engineer passionate about sustainability, energy technologies, and software development. By day I push the boundaries of my research in Absolute Environmental Sustainability Assessment (AESA) and Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) for electric vehicles; by night I build tools and apps that actually run in production.

Who I Am

I'm a PhD candidate at DTU and an energy engineer passionate about sustainability, energy technologies, and software development. By day I push the boundaries of my research in Absolute Environmental Sustainability Assessment (AESA) and Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) for electric vehicles; by night I build tools and apps that actually run in production.

My academic work demands precision, reproducibility, and deep systems thinking — the same principles I carry into every codebase I touch. I'm highly motivated and drawn to complex problems: the kind that reward both rigorous mathematical modeling in energy systems and sharp engineering instinct.

System Analysis for Absolute Sustainability of Electric Vehicles in the Energy Systems

DTU Profile

My research focuses on systemic modeling and systematic engineering for Absolute Environmental Sustainability Assessment (AESA). I apply prospective Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and optimization techniques to Electric Vehicle (EV) battery packs in the context of energy systems, while exploring the circularity of second-life batteries and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS).

AMA

The ultimate AI Relationship & Chat Analyzer.

AMA is a production-grade iOS application for tracking and understanding relationship dynamics through chat history. It decodes patterns, sentiment, and behavior to give you a full report in seconds. With features like a Connection Index and an "AI Judge" for conflict resolution, it turns raw chat exports into longitudinal emotional signals.

Connection Index scoring reciprocity, emotivity, and romanticism
Honorable AI Judge (Court Mode) to analyze arguments and logical fallacies
Interactive 28-day timeline to track relational shifts and trends
Privacy-first architecture analyzing chat exports locally
