I have a dream that technology can improve the lives of future generations.

With a Bachelor of Engineering, a Ph.D., and more than 25 years of experience in applied research, education, and entrepreneurship, I have dedicated my career to developing technologies that address real-world challenges. My work spans engineering and biomedical applications, including nanomaterials, optoelectronic devices, biosensors, diagnostic technologies, and medical devices.

Following the SARS and H5N1 outbreaks, I redirected my research towards bioengineering and healthcare technologies, motivated by the desire to create solutions that can make a meaningful difference to people's lives. Since then, I have worked on projects ranging from malaria diagnostic kits and biosensors to sensing needle probes and other biomedical innovations.

As both a researcher and a cancer survivor, I have developed a deep appreciation for the impact that technology can have on society. Today, my interests span research, education, entrepreneurship, and technology translation. I am passionate about advancing knowledge, mentoring future innovators, and helping promising technologies reach the people who can benefit from them.
