As a dedicated chemist with a Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry from the University of Mississippi, I bring both a deep understanding of the subject and a passion for teaching. My academic background is robust, including a Bachelor's degree in Chemistry, Molecular Biology, and Biotechnology, and an M.S. in Analytical Chemistry. During my Ph.D., I focused on cutting-edge research in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs), leading to 11 peer-reviewed publications.
In addition to my research, I have extensive experience in teaching and mentoring. As a Graduate Teaching Assistant, I led students through complex organic synthesis experiments, breaking down difficult concepts into manageable steps. I also mentored undergraduate research projects, ensuring that students not only understood the material but could apply it in practical settings.
I am proficient in a wide range of chemistry topics, including organic chemistry, analytical chemistry, physical chemistry, and specialized areas like photocatalysis and solar cell technology. My expertise in modern analytical techniques (HPLC, GC-MS, NMR) and software tools (MNova, ChemDraw, Gaussian) enables me to provide comprehensive support to students.
My teaching philosophy revolves around active learning and real-world applications, helping students connect theoretical knowledge to practical scenarios. I strive to make complex subjects accessible and engaging, fostering both understanding and enthusiasm for chemistry.
I am excited to bring my expertise to Wyzant and look forward to helping students achieve their academic goals while inspiring a passion for science.
