About
Since moving to New Zealand in 2009, I have thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful scenery and lifestyle it has to offer. I enjoy exploring new places and getting to know people from a variety of cultural backgrounds.
I have a great passion for chemistry and education, as both play such an important role in our lives, opening so many opportunities.

Industry experience, affiliations, and achievements
Research activity
My research background includes work in the field of computer-aided medicinal chemistry (molecular descriptors, modelling of protein-protein and protein-ligand interactions, virtual screening) with material science (molecular conductors based on a BEDT-TTF structure, TiO2 catalysts) and novel testing technologies applicable in chemical and medical research (microfluidics, lab-on-chip). My current research interest lies within environmental and food-industry fields.
