Collaborated with a team of scientists in value-adding research projects related to fuel product integrity and quality. Contributed to over 40 successful research projects. Eliminated repetitive data analysis procedures by creating MATLAB scripts to parse, reformat, analyze and visualize text file data of fuel thermo-oxidation generated from a custom in-house instrument. Designed and implemented innovative laboratory sample preparation solutions to improve the resolution of ppb level salt detection in gasoline

Researched supported metal catalysts for the ketonization of organic acids derived from biomass as part of a novel, renewable strategy for fuel synthesis.
