My organisation
About me
Developing subcritical water extraction (SWE) technologies within a circular economy framework converting agricultural waste into high-value bioactive compounds and natural ingredients for the food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical sectors. This approach not only reduces waste but also adds value across the agri-food chain, fostering innovation and sustainability.
I believe true transformation in agriculture happens through systems thinking, adaptive management, and education building capacity at every level from farmers to policymakers. My mission is to help transition toward a climate-resilient, circular, and biobased future where soil is valued as a living ecosystem from which agriculture starts.
