PhD Chemist & Surface Science Expert | Specialist in Formulation, Surfaces, Coatings, Inks, Disinfection, & Materials

Profile Summary

I am a PhD Chemist and Surface Science Expert with extensive experience in formulation development, materials innovation, and product commercialization across the inks, coatings, and packaging industries. Over the past decade, I have led R&D and product teams in developing functional and smart coating systems, including thermochromic and photochromic inks, solvent-based and water-based formulations, and surface-functionalized materials for consumer and industrial applications. My background spans lab-scale formulation through full-scale commercialization, guiding products from concept validation to market launch. I specialize in polymer chemistry, pigment dispersion, adhesion optimization, and surface–substrate interaction, with a strong focus on scalability, cost efficiency, and regulatory compliance for food-contact and durable label systems. In leadership roles, I’ve collaborated cross-functionally with manufacturing, marketing, and operations teams to align product performance with business growth objectives. I’m passionate about translating scientific innovation into profitable, sustainable solutions that enhance functionality, design, and consumer engagement. Let’s connect to bring your next formulation or product concept from lab to launch.
