About
I am the Lab Director at Oboro Labs with expertise in polymer chemistry, catalysis, and reaction mechanism studies. I earned my Ph.D. in Chemistry and have since contributed to advancements in organometallic catalysis, polymer synthesis, and process chemistry. My research spans reaction kinetics, air-free synthesis, and material characterization using NMR, FT-IR, X-ray crystallography, and electrochemistry. I have published multiple peer-reviewed articles and have presented his work at ACS and FAME conferences. I have collaborated on projects funded by ACS-PRF and NSF, as well as industry partnerships, including large-scale polymer synthesis with ExxonMobil.
In addition to research, I am committed to mentoring graduate and undergraduate students and guiding them in laboratory techniques and research methodologies. I have also served as a lab safety manager, ensuring compliance with best practices in chemical research.
