About & Biography
With a strong background in optical spectroscopy, my expertise lies in Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS), applied optics and photonics, chemometrics, and machine learning. I work at the intersection of research, technology, and innovation, translating fundamental research into field-capable analytical solutions. My research experience spans a diverse range of applications, including advanced materials, nuclear fusion, archaeology, environmental monitoring, and sustainable agriculture. I focus on translating spectroscopy and data-driven approaches into practical, rapid, and non-destructive analytical technologies that address real-world challenges.
