    • Aramco

      Jun 2022 - now

      At the Research and Development Center of Aramco, I embarked on a transformative mission that fueled my commitment to sustainability and scientific discovery.During my Internship , I spearheaded research aimed at revolutionizing waste management and resource utilization. Collaborating with a dynamic team, we embarked on a project to convert plastic waste into flash graphene, a material with immense potential. By harnessing the power of alternating current, we heated plastic waste to unlock its hidden potential, contributing to both environmental conservation and technological advancement.My time at Aramco was a continuous learning experience. Drawing from my educational foundation at Madison, I skillfully employed advanced techniques such as Raman spectroscopy, XRD diffraction, and TGA to meticulously analyze materials and glean valuable insights. These tools not only expanded my analytical prowess but also enriched my problem-solving capabilities. Show less
