At EnviCore Inc., I developed laboratory data workflows and a sample identification system connecting samples to processing histories and analytical results. I also developed an XRD/XRF application with a laboratory user that combines TOPAS outputs, mineral composition data, and XRF results; it has been used across approximately 200 samples.

At Hokkaido University / KEK, I directed a JSPS-funded research program on degradation mechanisms in hydrogen electrolysis materials and coordinated synchrotron experiments. My research experience also includes investigating alloy processing and brazing at Dalhousie University and University of Waterloo.
