Sahana Krishnan received a B.S. in Electrical Engineering from the University of Texas at Austin (UT Austin) in May of 2018. After graduating, she spent three years working at Texas Instruments (TI), architecting industry power solutions as part of TI’s commitment to making technology smaller, more efficient, and more reliable. She is currently pursuing her Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering at the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) with a research emphasis on 48 V to point-of-load DC-DC hybrid switched-capacitor converters in automotive applications. This research has been motivated by her desire to utilize her industry experience to inform academic research direction and reduce the timeline from research investigation to industry adoption. Outside of research activities, Sahana enjoys singing and playing the piano, hiking in Northern California, and exploring the Bay Area through local coffee shops!
