Chemistry

A bit about my path...

During my BSc and MSc, I worked on research projects focused on plasmonic nanocomposites and electrochemical catalysis as well as using different computational techniques to explain and predict the experimental behaviour of solid-state materials.

A bit about the work you are doing here...

My current research focuses on applying computational methods to help develop a deeper theoretical understanding of electrochemical catalysis systems for urea oxidation and ammonia oxidation reactions.

How will your work Improve Life?

My work is aimed at refining our theoretical understanding of converting nitrogenous waste compounds into value-added products and sustainable electricity.

Tell us something about you, beyond being a grad student...

I enjoy building computers, fishing, both card & board games, and spending time outdoors.
