My Story

From Biochemistry
to Global Impact

I graduated with First Class Honours in Biochemistry — a foundation that shaped not just my scientific thinking, but my conviction that rigorous research is the most powerful tool for change.

Today, as a PhD researcher at Iowa State University, I work at the intersection of agricultural science, food systems, and community wellbeing. My work draws on deep biochemical knowledge while reaching toward the systemic challenges that define our era.

Beyond the bench, I've had the privilege of participating in national forums like NAFB, serving as a judge at research competitions, and building lasting partnerships with scholars from across the globe.
