With over 30+ years of experience in Transmission and Distribution (T&D), I currently serve as Principal Advisor at Southern California Edison (SCE), focusing on strategic asset planning and risk-informed strategies for electrical infrastructure. My expertise includes developing actionable plans for utilities across different functions, aligning with organizational goals to enhance reliability and resilience across the grid. Collaborating with cross-functional teams, I ensure seamless implementation of initiatives that support energy transition efforts and modern grid solutions.

Previous roles, such as Principal Consultant at Infosys, saw me contributing to next gen solutions and AI-driven grid modernization and self-learning grids. My work in electric vehicle (EV) charging solutions and Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) programs at Nikola Motor Company positioned me as a key partner to utilities and fleet customers. Bridging business, engineering, and IT/OT teams, I focus on strategic leadership rather than hands-on technical integration.
