About Me

I am a PhD-qualified chemist with close to a decade of research and teaching experience and a strong interdisciplinary background.

My synthetic work has ranged across the breadth of chemistry, from an internship in the pharmaceutical industry to work on academic projects in classical and organometallic coordination chemistry, nanochemistry, and abiogenesis. As a doctoral candidate, I focused on designing and validating digital tools to enhance chemical discovery, drawing from data science, machine learning, and robotics.

Alongside this, I have extensive teaching experience across all ages from elementary/primary school to undergraduate. Notably, I have spent three years as a teacher of English as a foreign language across multiple schools in Japan.
