I have recently published my first journal article in J. Chem. Educ. on the development of gas chromatography system for teaching analytical chemistry:

I am currently working on heterogeneous electrocatalysis to oxidize ethane into acetate. In the future, I would like to try to electrochemically degrade microplastics for environmental remediation applications.

I love being able to collaborate with my fellow graduate students and am lucky to have the opportunity to use all the equipment here to aid me in my research.

Outside of the lab I like to go hiking and try new places to go to eat.
