I am a third-year PhD candidate in Professor Jeffery Kelly's lab, focusing on the "Inverse Drug Discovery" platform to find drug-like molecules that target proteins relevant to neurodegenerative diseases.

Privately tutored a wide range of students (from elementary to college-level) within STEM (Chemistry, Mathematics, Biology, General Science)

I worked with Dr Sarah Barry and her Chemical Biology research group for my 6-month Master's Research Project. I overexpressed, purified and analyzed the activity and substrate tolerance of a novel transaminase (recently identified in the biosynthetic pathway of a natural product family) for biocatalytic development.

Sydney, New South Wales, Australia

I worked with Professor Pall Thordarson and his Synthetic Organic Chemistry group investigating the wet-dry theory of hot springs (an evolution theory) by using peptide and RNA synthesis, followed by running simulated wet-dry cycles in the laboratory.

Sydney, New South Wales, Australia

I worked with Professor Timothy Schmidt and his Physical Chemistry research group on a novel solar cell material, investigating its potential to up-convert low-level energy wavelengths by triplet-triplet annihilation via singlet oxygen mediated up-conversion.

I worked with Associate Professor Kogularamanan Suntharalingam and his Biological Inorganic Chemistry research group to synthesise Cobalt(II) NSAID complexes and test their potential against cancer stem cells.

Worked alongside the social care team at the hospital, educating at-risk women on human papillomavirus, cervical cancer and tuberculosis.

Phnom Penh, Cambodia

Worked as an ESL support teacher for the school.
