I graduated from the Chemical Department at Kazakh State University after S.M. Kirov (1991). I joined the National Center on Complex Processing of Mineral Raw Materials in the Republic of Kazakhstan RSE in 2004 as the Head of the laboratory of silica carbon composites after having worked for several years as the Head of the chemical and analytical sector at the Central Laboratory for the NODFOS JSC (1992–1997). I was a Post-graduate student, a Senior Lecturer, and an Associate Professor at the Al-Farabi Kazakh National University (1997–2004) after my academic degree of Candidate of Chemical Sciences was conferred in 1999. I was promoted to Head scientific secretary in 2009, received the academic degree of Doctor of Technical Sciences in 2010, and received the academic rank of Professor in 2012. My current research covers the chemistry and technology of new materials, composite material production and use, sorption processes, and mineral processing.
