Everett Jackson, PhD
Associate Consultant
My interests lie in energy storage and conversion technology, electrochemical device design, and efficient industrial materials processing. Over the course of my career I have focused on bringing new materials into the lithium-ion battery ecosystem with an emphasis on improving their electrochemical performance and decreasing costs associated with their integration.
I earned a B.S. in Chemistry at Western Washington University in 2011, then joined the Prieto group at Colorado State University and completed a Ph.D. in Chemistry in 2016. During this time my research focused on electrochemical methods for the synthesis of new materials and material frameworks for lithium and sodium ion batteries and their characterization.
