Rodrigo Henriquez-Auba

Ph.D. candidate in Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences at UC Berkeley

I’m an electrical engineer specialized in Power and Energy Systems. I am studying a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences at UC Berkeley. I got my bachelor and MS in Electrical Engineering, focused on Demand Response optimization at Pontifical Catholic University from Chile. Currently, I’m mostly interested in dynamic modeling and simulation of power systems and the effects of inverter-based resources in the stability of electric grids. My favorite hobbies are cooking and playing video games.
