Job Responsibilities
Love to teach general chemistry for future scientists and engineers as well as for the pre-professionals (such as pharmacists, physician assistants, dentists, physicians, etc.).
Teaching involves a journey, challenging and mutual partnership: You might be a future colleague that I may consult thus you need to be more than trained and conditioned, you need to think linearly and nonlinearly and think in-the-box as outside-the-box.
Do advise, coach and mentor students in undergraduate research related to their own interests or my interests: Have created and developed partnerships with alumni!
Research Interests
Investigations of endocrine disrupter chemicals in various media.
Meteoritics (study of meteorites, especially R chondrites).
Modeling of reservoirs and plumes.
Phytoremediation and bioremediation strategies.
