About
I am a Chemical Engineering Ph.D. candidate at Stanford University, advised by Prof. Zhenan Bao. I engineer self-healing multilayer platforms for soft electronics, studying how molecular architecture controls interfacial behavior and autonomous alignment.
My work combines supramolecular chemistry, interfacial engineering, and nanoscale characterization to design dynamic materials that maintain function after damage. I am particularly interested in applying this framework to future technologies in women's healthcare.
Outside the lab, I am passionate about science communication and mentoring students from underrepresented backgrounds in STEM.
