I am a Research Scientist in Professor Martin Warren’s group, where I focus on engineering vitamin B12 synthesis in plants. I am passionate about applying synthetic biology to address nutritional challenges and advance human health.

I have a background in molecular biology and biochemistry, alongside experience in structural and cell biology. During my most recent postdoctoral research, I used a combination of time-resolved proteomics and imaging to investigate the mechanisms underlying epithelial polarity development.
