He has been a graduate advisor for several senior design projects, including a construction of a power amplifier, a design of a solar PV plant to support voltage at the end of the feeder, and a development of algorithm to determine the hosting capacity of a distribution feeder. Currently, he is working as an engineering contractor for Idaho Power. His main work is to evaluate the impact of utility scale PV farms connected to the distribution system and create mitigation options. Previously, he was a field engineer for a private construction company in Mexico designing and
