If y’all wanna know more about what I do:
I work in nuclear risk analysis & spend a lot of time explaining how we actually evaluate safety in this industry!

@JMSchattke I’m not claiming I had it the hardest. I’ve been lucky & privileged in many ways 🙏🏻
But moving countries, working outside your field & dealing with years of uncertainty still takes persistence.

@NuclearHazelnut It is good being part of a privileged class, I suppose.

In 2018, I moved to the USA with one clear goal:
Build a career in nuclear energy ⚛️
What followed included restaurant jobs, moving countries, rejection, the IAEA, Westinghouse & a lot of uncertainty along the way.
Here’s the story 🧵

@sl80107 Thank you!! Hope you find it interesting ☺️

@NuclearHazelnut I remember such a suitcase situation too. smaller number of them too. Probably a decade or so earlier. Would love to hear your story
English
Exactly 8 years ago I landed in the USA with this ridiculous pile of suitcases & one big dream: to work in nuclear energy!
I didn’t know if it would actually happen… but today I get to wake up every day & I get to live my passion, talk about it & build a career I truly love.
Grateful beyond words 🇺🇸⚛️

@Avinash2876 Thanks!!! Here it is… a promised! 😉

Nuclear energy has completely changed my life & career & I genuinely love being part of this industry ⚛️
So, if you are new here: Welcome to Nuclear 𝕏!
I’m always happy to answer questions, share my experience & connect with curious mind.
English
I’m also currently pursuing my Master’s in Nuclear Engineering while working full-time 📚⚛️
Still learning. Still growing. Still excited about the future of nuclear energy!!!

@curly_ood I came here through the permanent resident (green card) process. Took me 23 years approx!

@NuclearHazelnut How did sponsorship work for you? Being on visa it’s nearly impossible to work in this field.. any tips?
English
@klazizpro hahahah with a couple of extra hands 🤪
English
@NuclearHazelnut I wonder how did you go home with all of that ? 🤣
English
@trail93435 I haven’t had the opportunity yet, but I’d love to visit one day!! 😊
English
@NuclearHazelnut Good deal...did you get to Oak Ridge yet? Drop in for coffee...
English
@JMSchattke That sounds intense, but the simulations part is really impressive!!
English
@NuclearHazelnut I was a freshman in my undergrad when the Fukushima Daiichi meltdowns happened, and got my Master's in 2016. It's been a tough row to hoe for me, but I've done some cool simulations, including a U233/thorium thermal breeder that simulates to breed positive.
