About
Dr. Jordan Clark studies novel ways of providing for environmental control, energy efficiency, and power demand management in commercial, residential and agricultural buildings.  His research interests include modeling of buildings and indoor environments, sensor hardware, HVAC systems, and interaction of buildings with larger energy systems.  He has contributed to development of several hyper-efficient cooling and dehumidification products and volunteers for efforts around standardization of testing and rating of hardware for smart control of indoor environments at [ASHRAE](https://www.ashrae.org/) and [HVI](https://www.hvi.org/). Dr. Clark received his PhD and MS from the University of Texas at Austin, where he was a member of the [Building Energy and Environments Research Group](https://www.caee.utexas.edu/research/research-areas/building-energy-and-environments).  Before starting at OSU, Dr. Clark held postdoctoral appointments at the [National Renewable Energy Laboratory](http://www.caee.utexas.edu/research/35-research/research-areas/49-bee) and [Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory](http://www.lbl.gov/).

About
As a Sr. Staff Chemical Engineer at American Battery Technology Company (NASDAQ: ABAT), I apply my extensive knowledge and experience in Li-ion battery technology to develop hydrometallurgical solutions for battery recycling, metal extraction, and mineral resource development. I have worked at ABTC since December 2021, leading and contributing to various projects to improve the battery industry's efficiency, sustainability, and profitability. Before joining American Battery Technology Company, I worked as an Electrochemistry Engineer Technical Specialist and a Senior Systems Engineer at Cummins Inc. I was involved in industrial Li-ion battery cell qualification and forensic analysis, battery module and system integration and validation, battery abusive test, and electrochemical analysis. I also have over 10 years of academic experience in Li-ion battery chemistry, materials science, and electrochemistry. I have completed two postdoctoral positions from Florida State University and National Lab, and one PhD in Physics from Tsinghua University. I have multiple U.S. patents granted and papers published in this field. My core competencies include electrochemistry, materials science, surface chemistry, and battery technology. I am passionate about advancing Li-ion battery technology and addressing the global challenges of energy storage and electrification.

Steve Isley

14 Years Experience
Ph.D. trained research scientist with deep expertise in sustainable consumption and applied generative AI
Experience

National Renewable Energy Laboratory

Behavioral Scientist / July, 2014October, 2016

At NREL, I introduced behavioral science research techniques to teams throughout the lab. I built an augmented reality Android app (Java, Vuforia SDK, and OpenGL ES) that incorporated carbon information into consumer good purchasing decisions and performed a randomized controlled trial at a local grocery store. The app provided personalized recommendations and led to a decrease in the average carbon footprint of purchased products and to healthier food choices. My work in smart home energy management systems contributed to a 2018 R&D 100 award (given annually by R&D Magazine, the award honors the 100 most innovative technologies of the past year). I was also involved with the design, programming, and testing of an Android app that monitors transportation related choices and suggested alternatives. This involved creating and running user-interface tests using Amazon Mechanical Turk. The experiments were coded in Javascript (with jQuery, Backbone, and Bootstrap).

About
My career has been about solving hard problems in ambiguous spaces. I’m passionate about sustainability and the societal consequences of new technologies. I have a multi-disciplinary background including startup entrepreneurship, software development, deep subject matter expertise in sustainable consumption, a PhD in policy analysis, and an MS & BS in aerospace engineering. <br> I love exploring new technologies. For the last year, I’ve been using generative AI to build CountOn - an entirely new type of shopping experience where we use LLMs to summarize the knowledge of trusted experts in order to help people make better purchase decisions. Prior to CountOn, I spent five years at Amazon where I led sustainable customer research and helped launch The Climate Pledge (Amazon's commitment to be net zero carbon by 2040). Before that, I was a scientist at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory where I did some of the earliest research in augmented reality shopping tools, smart transportation, and home energy management systems.
