Background and Professional Info
Certifications
Dating back to my school days, I always had an affinity towards chemistry. The study of change always intrigued me and caught my attention. I enrolled in Rutgers University, School of Engineering in 2009 with a major in Chemical Engineering. During my time at Rutgers, I held several positions in Business Administration for various small companies in the South Jersey region. I also participated in a multitude of extracurricular activities to stay engaged with the Rutgers community. Upon graduating in May of 2014, I created the startup HotHaat Marketplace. When HotHaat Marketplace was stable enough during Q2 of 2015, I left to pursue a career in the Chemical Industry, where I have gained a wide breadth of experience and knowledge, particularly with the Pharmaceutical Industry, in my short time with Johnson Matthey.
