PhD Student, Chemical Engineering, University of Toronto (2021-Current)
Master of Science, Chemical Engineering, University of Minnesota Twin Cities, United States (2018-2020)
Bachelor of Science, Chemical Engineering and Materials Science Engineering, University of California-Berkeley, United States (2015-2017)

I obtained Bachelor of Science degree majoring chemical engineering and materials science engineering at University of California Berkeley with Highest Honors in General Scholarship. After that, I earned Master of Science degree in chemical engineering at University of Minnesota Twin Cities. My previous research focused on the fundamental side of polymer physics. I honed my skills of relevant techniques including rheology, scattering techniques, transmission electron microscopy, size exclusion chromatography, proton nuclear magnetic resonance and polymer synthesis techniques including anionic polymerization.

With a strong background in chemical engineering and polymer science, I aim to make progress in improving membrane materials and separation processes that recover crucial resources including water and metals as a member of Advanced Membrane Lab led by Professor Werber.
