About Me

I am a postdoctoral researcher in quantum chemistry focused on molecular excited states.

I develop methods to simulate photochemical and spectroscopic processes

I bring years of experience in method development and applications in Quantum Chemistry. Through my research work in computational chemistry, I have developed a diverse range of skills in areas such as scientific programming and data analysis. I’ve applied these skills to a variety of projects across different chemistry problems, from fundamental diatomic molecules to real-world optoelectronic polymers.

I believe in collaborating closely with researchers in different fields to develop tailored answers that meet relevant scientific questions. Whether you’re looking to develop new methods for simulating electronic excited states or explore innovative ways to apply quantum technologies, I’m here to help you achieve your goals.
