About
A chemist between research, industry and technology.
I am a green chemistry and sustainability professional with a background in analytical chemistry and environmental science. I help organisations and researchers make sense of complex chemical and environmental challenges through independent analysis, clear communication and practical solutions.
My work sits at the intersection of chemistry, technology and sustainability — grounded in evidence, driven by curiosity, and committed to impact.
