As of April 2025, I am exploring ways to make complex energy data and concepts more accessible and understandable for various stakeholders through my research work at the Asia-Pacific Energy Research Centre (APERC). APERC serves as a research institution that supports the APEC Energy Working Group (EWG), providing evidence-based analysis and policy recommendations to senior energy officials from 21 APEC member economies to support regional energy security, economic growth, and environmental sustainability.

As a researcher in the Energy Statistics and Training Office (ESTO) of APERC, my main role is to collect, process, and manage energy data of the APEC member economies. Specifically, I am in charge of the annual energy supply and demand (energy balance table) for the seven APEC-ASEAN member economies. I also support ESTO's energy statistics training and workshops and other related work associated with ESTO's role as the secretariat of the APEC Expert Group on Energy Data and Analysis (EGEDA). Through these roles, I hope to make energy-related data more easily accessible and understandable. I continue my aspiration of supporting energy education to help stakeholders make more informed decisions as we go through the energy transition.

I got my doctoral degree in March 2022 from the Graduate School of Energy Science at Kyoto University. I focused on the implications of high PV penetration on the energy balance in Kyushu, Japan. My background in Electronics Engineering greatly influences my approach to energy modeling, as I leverage my skills to set up physical and virtual servers for modeling environments and technical knowledge about electrical equipment. Additionally, I have experience working with embedded systems and single-board computers for remote monitoring. I am also involved in collaborative projects related to community renewable energy systems. These projects require various interdisciplinary skills, including foundational knowledge related to social science, economics, policy planning, and environmental awareness.

Overall, my research vision is centered around advancing the understanding of the technical consideration of integrating renewable energy into the existing energy systems while also considering the economic, social, environmental, and political aspects of sustainable energy solutions. Through my work, I hope to contribute to the global effort to transition towards sustainable energy, focusing on maintaining the quality of life in developed nations and improving the quality of life in developing nations.
