He obtained his PhD in Analytical chemistry from Florida State University under Professor André Striegel’s supervision and his postdoctoral training at University of Minnesota with Professor Peter Carr. He has published on several topics including polymer analysis using multi-detection size-exclusion chromatography, two dimensional liquid chromatography, pharmaceutical analysis, method development, HPLC troubleshooting, and instrument evaluation.
