Lecturer in Pharmaceutical Chemistry
About
As a Senior Lecturer in Pharmaceutical Chemistry at Kingston University, I am a dedicated analytical chemist with over a decade of professional experience in both industry and academia. I specialise in method development and validation, with a particular focus on complex analytes like pesticides and herbicides.
My academic journey began at the University of Salerno, Italy, where I earned my undergraduate degree in Chemistry in 2010. I then moved to the UK to advance my specialisation, obtaining a Master's in Forensic Analysis and subsequently a PhD in Chemistry in 2018, both from Kingston University. I am a Senior Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (SFHEA), and a member of the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) and The Aerosol Society, reflecting my active engagement within the scientific community.
Professional Experience
Before transitioning to academia, I honed my skills as an analytical chemist at several prominent organisations, including Cara Technology, Thames Water, and the global agribusiness leader, Syngenta. This extensive industry background provides me with a unique, real-world perspective that I bring to my research and teaching, allowing me to bridge the gap between theoretical science and practical application.
