Hello! I am an Associate Professor in Electrical Engineering at LNU. Before my present position at LNU I did my undergraduate and PhD studies at KTH and spent time as a postdoc and a researcher at Lund University.

Teaching

At the moment I teach:

Automatic control, basic course
Automatic control, advanced course
Electric power systems
Electrical machines

I am also the main supervisor for one PhD student in Mathematics, Alexander Marcial.

Research

My research focuses on optimal control of stochastic systems with specific applications in electrical energy systems. I am also interested in using artificial intelligence to solve large-scale optimization problems in energy systems, and I aim to integrate these two areas to improve efficiency and sustainability in the energy industry.
