Computational Materials Scientist | PhD in Nanotechnology | Expert in Molecular Dynamics & Simulation

Profile Summary

I am a PhD graduate in Nanotechnology with expertise in molecular dynamics simulations (LAMMPS, GROMACS), finite element modeling (COMSOL), and algorithm development in Python and MATLAB. My research focuses on thermal and diffusive properties of nanomaterials, supported by multiple high-impact publications including Nature Communications. I have hands-on experience integrating simulations with experimental data and working across academia and industry, including internships at MBN Research Center and Grove Nanomaterials Ltd. I can assist with materials modeling, data-driven simulations, and computational research projects across nanotechnology, energy, and condensed matter.
