Connections to mentors with non-academic careers.
My career is driven by a passion for mentoring and skills development. At The 2nd Lab, I actively contribute to setting up resources to support professionals at both technical and strategic levels. My experience in industry has reinforced my belief in the value of cross-disciplinary skills that enrich my research expertise.
With a Master's degree and a range of appropriate skills, I'm fully prepared to steer projects and coach teams towards achieving their objectives.
I'm a proactive and versatile individual with excellent communication skills. My career path has taken me beyond academia into entrepreneurship, with a strong commitment to sustainability and reducing environmental impact. This vision drives me to innovate and develop concrete solutions.
Currently, I'm part of Agapyo, an innovative start-up specializing in the development of compostable alternatives to petroplastics to meet the environmental challenges of the global plastic crisis.

Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
