I am a Research Fellow at the Western Australian School of Mines (WASM), Curtin University, Kalgoorlie Campus. My research focuses on mineral processing, metallurgical engineering, chemical engineering, sustainable resource utilisation, and solid waste valorisation. I have authored more than 40 peer-reviewed journal and conference publications, with most appearing in Q1 journals. My research has received over 950 citations, with an h-index of 16 and an i10-index of 19, demonstrating its international impact. I hold a PhD in Mineral Processing and Metallurgical Engineering from The University of Queensland, supported by a full Australian Government and University of Queensland scholarship, and a Master of Philosophy in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering from the University of Sydney. During my postgraduate studies, I received competitive funding from the Royal Society and the University of Leeds to undertake research at the Energy Research Institute, University of Leeds, and was awarded a University of Sydney travel grant to present my research at the international Chemeca conference. Alongside my research, I have extensive experience supervising undergraduate and postgraduate research projects in mineral processing and chemical engineering. I am passionate about mentoring future engineers and researchers by promoting technical excellence, innovation, critical thinking, and strong industry engagement.
