I received my B.E. (Chemical) (First Class Honours) at the University of Adelaide in 2014 and am currently a PhD student under the supervision of Prof. Shi Zhang Qiao in the School of Chemical Engineering at the University of Adelaide. My research interests include developing new electrocatalyst materials for efficient catalysis in some key electrochemical processes. Currently, my research is focused on developing novel carbon and metal nanostructured materials for the electrocatalytic reduction of CO2 into useful fuels. The goal of this research is to advance clean energy storage technologies for future pathways to sustainable energy technologies.
