I'm an experimental physicist, specializing in polymer nanocomposite research. My current area of expertise is utilizing the photothermal property of metal nanostructures to develop unique polymer processing techniques. Typical work comprises of synthesizing different nanocomposite systems, and then characterizing them via optical and mechanical methods. It's safe to say that I dabble in organic chemistry, optics, polymer physics and electron microscopy.

My objective is to be involved in cutting-edge applied research that dictates the development of next generation of consumer products with an emphasis on sustainability.
