Profile Summary

I’m an environmental scientist pursuing a PhD in Chemical Engineering at the University of Edinburgh, with a focus on mitigating microplastics in the textile industry by exploring quantification and mineralisation through advanced oxidative processes. Before this, I completed a Master’s in Sustainable Management of Pollution at Junia, where I gained hands-on experience in wastewater treatment optimisation and microplastics monitoring through research internships with the LIWET and DYMITRIA projects. These projects strengthened my skills in laboratory experimentation, data analysis, µFTIR spectroscopy, and scientific communication. I am motivated by applying research to real-world environmental challenges, from improving industrial processes to enhancing ecosystem health. I am always open to collaboration, knowledge exchange, or opportunities that link science, sustainability, and societal impact.
