Biography

I am currently a PhD candidate at Western Australia School of Mines (WASM): Minerals, Energy and Chemical Engineering of Curtin University. I have a background in education having completed my Bachelor of Science in Chemistry and Master’s Degree in Metallurgical Engineering from WASM of Curtin University.

I am currently working on the topic "Evaluation of the wettability characteristics after gas injection, especially wettability of CO2-brine-mineral/clay/rocks system", which has the implication for CO2 sequestration. My research interests are wettability, carbon capture storage (CCS), reservoir management, and metallurgy.

In career path, my ultimate goal is to be a consultant, being able to be in managerial and leadership positions at a university, industry, or not-for-profit organisation, such as United Nation or other international organisations.

Fact about me, I am passionate about workouts/sport (especially gym/fitness) and dancing. I enjoy doing these activities in my free time with passion, commitment and joy. Workouts make me happy and healthy, and increase my energy level. They involve a lot of physical exercises and activities, with good physical and mental benefits. I have been learning and performed dancing on various occasion since I was in high school. A dance is an art, which is evolved intense and rigorous preparation of body and mind; and it keeps my body active and alert.
