Biography

Jason Gastelum holds a BS and MS in Operations Research and has over 15 years of experience in risk and decision analysis. As an officer in the U.S. Air Force, Jason developed models to predict the effects of high-power microwaves on electronics and to predict the success of candidates in pilot training. Since joining the Energy and Environment Directorate at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory in 2008, Jason has applied decision and risk analysis techniques to domains including environmental remediation, commercial power plants, carbon sequestration, and the nuclear fuel market. His other research interests include optimization using mathematical programming and discrete event simulation.
