I'm a materials and surface chemist with a PhD in Chemistry and Biochemistry, and a deep curiosity for how science can drive meaningful change. Over the past several years, I've worked across biotech R&D and innovation strategy—diving into everything from non-viral gene therapeutics and biomaterials to ecosystem building and cross-disciplinary collaboration. Whether I’m in the lab or facilitating connections between researchers and industry, I’m motivated by the challenge of translating ideas into impact and fostering environments where discovery thrives.
