Summary

Harnessing nuclear power for clean, sustainable, and reliable energy has been an ambition of mine. I have developed a strong foundation in scientific research and analytical skills during my Bachelors. Driven by advancements in nuclear fusion and fission technologies, I transitioned to MSc Nuclear Science and Engineering to contribute through research, technology development, and advocating for safe nuclear policies for Small Modular Reactors and Advanced Modular Reactors that address climate change. My interdisciplinary research and development experience within nuclear and healthcare, positions me well to make meaningful contributions to the fields of science and engineering.
