Wollongong, Australia

Pursuing a summer research project in the field of atmospheric chemistry. Utilising and analysing the AirCore atmospheric sampling system.

I was awarded a Summer Research Scholarship to undertake a research project in Associate Professor Jack Clegg's research group. My project was focused on the synthesis of a quaterpyridyl ligands to be incorporated into a self assembled metal-organic framework. During the project I improved upon and gained skills in, wet chemistry, organic synthesis, H NMR and liquid nitrogen dispensing.

As part of ENGG1600 - Introduction to Research Practices, I undertook a self-directed project under the supervision of Dr Polly Burey in the School of Agriculture and Food Sciences. My research was focused at looking at the effects of processing variables on the physical properties of a coconut oil based emulsion for ice-cream production. As a part of this project I developed skills involving, wet chemistry, Minitab statistical data processing, Mastersizer droplet size analysis… Show more As part of ENGG1600 - Introduction to Research Practices, I undertook a self-directed project under the supervision of Dr Polly Burey in the School of Agriculture and Food Sciences.
