Profile Summary

I am a PhD chemist with over 5 years of research experience in electrochemistry, analytical chemistry, and materials physicochemistry. My expertise includes experimental data interpretation, scientific graph design and analysis, manuscript writing and revision, as well as the preparation of oral and poster presentations. Previous and ongoing research projects: -Development of innovative electrochemical sensors for the detection of pharmaceutically, biomedically, environmentally, and agro-food relevant molecules. - Application of DFT modeling to investigate molecular interactions and chemical reactivity of target molecules. - Design and synthesis of functionalized nanomaterials and composites to enhance electrode performance. - Collaboration with colleagues on scientific article writing in the fields of corrosion and major dye adsorption. - Experience in creating graphical abstracts and professionally designing figures according to Q1 journal standards. - Manuscript and paragraph revision, scientific idea development and knowledge sharing. - Preparation of participation certificates for researchers, professors, and experts at scientific conferences. - Interpretation of voltammetric data and application of advanced analytical techniques including scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM/EDS), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV–Vis spectroscopy, and zeta potential analysis. I am motivated by interdisciplinary collaborations and solving complex analytical and electrochemical challenges, and I am ready to apply my expertise to both academic and industrial projects.
