A technical Project Engineer from a Chemical Process Engineering background, and a passionate scientist who believes in hydrogen energy. I defended a Ph.D. in 2016 dealing with sustainable carbon adsorbents design for hydrogen storage purposes. I have been working for more than seven years in the synthesis and characterization of bio-adsorbents for liquid and gas treatments, gaining a broad understanding of the synthesis and processing of activated carbons, physical and chemical activations of lignocellulosic materials, and the adsorption process. I have acquired expertise in the porosity and structural characterization of porous materials (TEM, SEM, XRD, FTIR, ICP), as well as gas sorption measurements using volumetric and gravimetric devices.
In my current position, I am exploring the "Project Manager" on me. I am working on managing budgets and cost estimation, planning, and execution of work packages.
