With a solid foundation in chemical engineering and a specialization in environmental sustainability, I have always been passionate about the intersection of science, society, and development. I earned my Doctorate in Chemical Technology with a focus on Environmental Engineering and have spent several years working across international projects in water management, sustainability, and stakeholder engagement. My career has taken me through diverse roles, from a senior process engineer to a program manager for organizations like SIWI, allowing me to design impactful projects, manage teams, and contribute to global sustainability efforts.
I am drawn to mentoring master's students because I believe in the importance of nurturing the next generation of professionals, especially those passionate about solving environmental challenges. Mentorship allows me to share my knowledge and experiences in a meaningful way, helping students navigate their academic journeys and future careers. Through mentoring, I hope to inspire students to think critically, develop innovative solutions, and pursue their professional goals with confidence.
For my mentees, I would love to work with students who are driven, curious, and open to collaboration. I value a proactive approach, where the mentee is eager to learn but also willing to challenge ideas and think outside the box. I aim to guide them not only in their academic or technical work but also in building soft skills like leadership, communication, and resilience. Ultimately, I hope to foster a relationship built on mutual learning and professional growth.
