Education:
   • Ph.D. University of Oklahoma 2011-2015
Thesis: “Mixed-Metal Carbides: Understanding the Synthesis, Surface Properties and Catalytic Activities”

Research Topic: Selective oxidation of methane over copper-containing zeolites

Research Description: I investigate the catalytic activation of methane using inorganic microporous materials as heterogeneous catalysts. In particular, I will investigate the selective oxidation of methane over copper-containing zeolites and the formation of value added chemicals.

Other fun facts or hobbies: listening to classical music, working out.
