I am Christopher Munoz, and I’m excited to be working at Texas Sustainable Energy Research Institute (TSERI). I am born and raised in South Texas. The values of hard work and community involvement that Texas fosters has helped me become who I am today. In my teenage years, I was a Boy Scout and through hard work and dedication achieved the rank of Eagle Scout. Through the years of maturation, I developed a desire to help with climate change, and I am ecstatic to work for an Institute that helps support sustainability in our environment, economy, and planet. Bringing large datasets and computing them to something usable and useful for decisions in logistic operations has been incredibly rewarding and I look forward to the many projects I will be working with TSERI.
