I am a PhD candidate studying Surface Chemistry and Materials Science in the School of Molecular Sciences at the University of Western Australia.

My thesis is on the Structure and Properties of Solvents and Salts at Interfaces for Sustainable Consumption and Production.

My most recent publication is "Self‑Assembled Nanostructure Induced in Deep Eutectic Solvents via an Amphiphilic Hydrogen Bond Donor" in the Journal of Colloid and Interface Science. This research involved studying the structure of green and cheap solvents at the nanoscale, primarily using Atomic Force Microscopy.

The main aim of my research is to use the results to design low‑cost lubricants and electrolytes to improve the sustainability of fluids used in industry and to reduce waste generation through the recycling and reuse of solvents and salts.

Thesis:

• Structure and Properties of Solvents and Salts at Interfaces for Sustainable Consumption and Production

Projects:
