Hi, I’m Andy Berres! My two main strengths are to derive insight from data and to connect across domains. These strengths enable me to find innovative and efficient computing solutions which are tailored to domains, such as transportation, buildings, energy resilience, and grid integration.

I specialize in geospatial data workflows and data fusion, which I have done anywhere from supercomputers and cloud computing to web-based decision support platforms, real-time sensing, and microcontrollers. I support a diverse portfolio of projects with data analysis, real-time system monitoring, fault detection, behavioral modeling, and systems integration.
I’m passionate about domain-driven problem-solving and have applied my skills to projects in a wide range of topics from traffic operations, traffic safety problems, and building energy simulation to ocean models, population dynamics, energy resilience, balance of plant planning, and the energy-water nexus.
