About

With over six years immersed in polymer chemistry and materials design research, I serve as a dedicated Postdoctoral Researcher at Empa. My expertise lies in the realm of polymer processing, characterization, and testing, with a keen focus on epoxy/vinyl-ester resins sourced from bio-based materials, advanced 3D printing of polymers and ceramics for industrial applications, self-healing coatings, proton exchange membranes for fuel cells, and bio-polymers tailored for reversible thermosets.
