I have extensive international experience in laser technology with a proven record of innovation. My intellectual property portfolio includes 20 patents and over 60 publications in peer-reviewed journals. Throughout my career, I have developed advanced laser-based solutions to address complex challenges across diverse fields, including healthcare, spectroscopy, materials science, manufacturing, and agriculture. Additionally, I have successfully secured grant funding, founded and directed research laboratories, and gained substantial academic experience as a professor at both graduate and postgraduate levels. I have been appointed as an Invited Professor at St. Petersburg Electrotechnical University in Russia and the University of Florida, and I serve as a Senior Associate at the International Centre for Theoretical Physics in Trieste, Italy.In the later years of my career, I transitioned into the industry by joining View Inc., an innovative company combining glass and semiconductor technologies, where I worked as a Laser Engineer. More recently, I have taken an entrepreneurial path, founding Onteko, a company dedicated to research and advancing laser technology. Onteko has already launched its first spinoff, specializing in lasers for artwork restoration.Key Achievements:- Developed a low-cost, high-precision laser for artwork restoration.- Invented, patented, and introduced new methods for electrochromic thin-film processing.- Created and patented a laser technique that enhances foliar uptake of agrochemicals by selectively exfoliating the leaf cuticle.- Invented and patented a method for rapid detection of bacterial infections in carrier insects.- Delivered a novel laser ablation technique for de-thorning cactus plants.- Produced and patented an innovative non-contact laser skin perforation method for blood sampling.
