Personal profile
Biography
I am currently a Lecturer at Monash University Malaysia’s School of Science, where I teach undergraduates on Tropical Environmental Management, Environmental Science, and Ecological Applications. My research interests include aquatic bio-geochemistry (hydrology and oceanography), environmental monitoring and assessments, environmental pollution (trace metals, microplastics, emerging pollutants), and ecotoxicology. Apart from teaching and research, I am also highly passionate about outreach projects that could help educate the public on environmental awareness and sustainability.
