About
I am a biotechnology researcher with a passion for understanding biology and turning scientific ideas into meaningful solutions for human health. My experience spans cancer immunology, vaccine development, recombinant proteins, VLPs, mammalian cell biology, cell engineering, biomaterials, and translational research.
What drives me is the opportunity to ask meaningful biological questions, solve challenging problems, and translate discoveries into practical technologies and therapies. I also enjoy mentoring students and collaborating across disciplines, because I believe good science grows through curiosity, teamwork, and continuous learning.
My research is now moving toward cell-surface engineering, extracellular vesicles, biomaterials, and cancer biology, with a growing interest in how we can engineer cells and their microenvironment to control biological function.
Looking ahead, I aim to build an independent research program at the intersection of cell biology, biomaterials, cancer research, and therapeutic development, with the goal of developing innovative approaches that can ultimately make a meaningful impact on human health.
