Kavya Sreedhar
Ph.D. Student in Electrical Engineering, admitted Autumn 2019
BioKavya Sreedhar is an electrical engineering PhD candidate advised by Mark Horowitz. Her research interests include architecture design and developing hardware accelerators for cryptography and machine learning applications. On the cryptography side, she has worked on designing a fast extended GCD accelerator for constant-time modular inversion and verifiable delay functions. On the deep learning side, she is working on dynamically adapting the execution of state-of-the-art models for use in real-time systems and accelerating dynamic transformer models for computer vision in an ongoing collaboration with NVIDIA. She previously worked with the Agile Hardware (AHA) Project in developing Lake, a parameterizable memory generator that can be configured at runtime to support different image processing and machine learning applications. As part of her research, she has worked on taping out three chips in SKY130nm, GF12nm, and TSMC16nm. Kavya is supported by the Quad Fellowship (2023 to 2024) and Stanford's Knight-Hennessy Graduate Fellowship (2019 to 2022). She received a B.S. in Electrical Engineering and BEM (Business, Economics, & Management) from Caltech in 2019 and a M.S. in Electrical Engineering from Stanford in 2021.

Kirsten Stasio
Adjunct Lecturer, Atmosphere and Energy
BioKirsten Stasio is CEO of the Nevada Clean Energy Fund (NCEF), Nevada's nonprofit green bank. She also serves as an Adjunct Lecturer at Stanford University, where she co-teaches Understand Energy, a course that gives students the knowledge and tools to engage in the energy and sustainability sectors.
Throughout her career, Kirsten has strived to translate her life-long passion for environmental sustainability into real impact across the policy, education, corporate, and investment sectors. Before joining NCEF, Kirsten worked at MAP Energy, an energy investment firm, where she helped scale investments in renewable energy across the US. Her early career began at the World Resources Institute (WRI), a non-profit, where she worked with policymakers and other stakeholders to implement climate finance solutions. While getting her graduate degree at Stanford, Kirsten worked at Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) where she helped launched a new energy efficiency initiative with large businesses in the Bay Area. Kirsten also worked at Apple to implement energy measures at Apple's headquarters, retail stores, and data centers.
Kirsten began teaching at Stanford in early 2015 after graduating from Stanford with an MBA and an MS degree in the Emmet-Interdisciplinary Program on Environment and Resources (E-IPER). Kirsten also earned a dual BA in International Relations and French from the University of California, Davis.
The origins of Kirsten's passion for sustainability trace back to her childhood when she spent time on her family’s fourth-generation ranch in the Sierra Nevada foothills, a place where she enjoys spending time today with her husband and daughter.
