Biography:

I am an early career researcher/academic in the field of bioprocess engineering.  My specific interest is in developing sustainable microbial processes to produce bio-based platform chemicals from renewable resources.  This was the key focus of my doctoral studies and was also the focus of my postdoctoral research at NREL.  I am now happily affiliated with CeBER to continue this exciting journey.
