Thank you for visiting our group webpage!

We are a materials synthesis group interested in organic polymers and inorganic colloids. We focus on controlling chemical structure and understanding how these structural changes translate into modified properties. Check the projects page for information about current projects in the group.

Students learn about societal needs (water, energy, and environment) through materials chemistry research projects involving the synthesis of organic polymers, inorganic nanoparticles, and ionic liquids. I am always seeking collaborative projects to prepare undergraduate and master’s students for specific industries and graduate programs. Please email me if you would like to talk more about ideas in this area.
