I am a cementitious materials scientist with industry and Ph.D. research experience focused on cement hydration, durability, and low-carbon cement systems. My work combines deep technical analysis with clear, practical communication in customer-facing and legal-adjacent contexts. I have led and supported research on blended and alternative cementitious materials, including calcium carbonate–based systems, supplementary cementitious materials, and durability performance relative to ASTM and other industry standards. My technical work emphasizes microstructure–property relationships, root-cause analysis of performance behavior, and generation of defensible, reproducible data. In the green tech industry, I have served in customer-facing technical roles, working directly with clients, engineers, and stakeholders to explain material behavior, performance tradeoffs, and implementation considerations. I regularly translate complex experimental results into clear, actionable technical narratives for non-specialist audiences, including customers, attorneys, and business teams. In parallel, I am a Registered Patent Agent (USPTO Reg. No. 83876) and an inventor on multiple U.S. patent applications. I have hands-on experience preparing invention disclosures, supporting patent drafting, and contributing to claim-scope discussions for materials-based technologies. My patent experience complements my engineering background by strengthening my ability to articulate technical distinctions, enablement, and practical implementation.
