Hi! This is Barbara! I’m an Italian/American researcher working in the Chemistry Department of the University of California, Irvine.
I was born and raised in Italy where I obtained my grade level school and college educations (I obtained a college degree in Environmental Science). At the age of twenty-seven I moved to the US where I obtained my Masters degree and PhD in Chemistry at UCI. During my graduate program, I served as Teaching Assistant in Chemistry for a number of academic quarters and during the past twenty-plus years as a researcher at UCI I have personally mentored several graduate students.
As far as my Italian heritage, I still use Italian as my preferred language in my family setting, and I regularly travel to Italy about twice a year. My proficiency in Italian language has remained at a native level throughout the years.
I will be more than happy to help you out in your journey through the periodic table all the way to college-level classes, or in the understanding and improvement of the Italian language!
