Bio
I’ve had a passion for science and research since I was young. I earned my PhD in Chemistry under Prof. Peidong Yang at UC Berkeley. Afterwards, I worked on electrocatalytic CO2 conversion with Prof. Thomas Jaramillo in Chemical Engineering at Stanford University. I was co-advised by Prof. James Harris in Electrical Engineering at Stanford.
I am especially interested by developing new technologies that can contribute towards a more sustainable future.
