Summary
I am currently studying a bachelor of science majoring in chemistry. Once I complete my degree in 2024, I plan continuing my studies in a masters program. I am particularly interested in organic synthesis and see myself pursuing this as a career in the future.
Currently I am performing a research project with a team of other undergraduate students on the applications of plasma deposition of metal oxide hetrojunctions.
