I chose to study environmental engineering as an undergraduate because of an interest in preventing/remediating water pollution and ensuring safe drinking water for everyone. Today, I remain very interested in new desalination and wastewater treatment technologies that can ensure access to clean water for the entire world.

 

Research

• Fate and transport of trenbolone, one of the many so-called emerging contaminants polluting waters in the U.S. 

• Understanding the thermodynamic minimum required for water seperations.

• Improving desalination by eliminating scale formation

• Fouling resistant membranes
