What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an entry-level role where I can apply my lab and analytical skills in industrial chemistry while contributing to research and open, inclusive science communication. I enjoy teamwork, learning fast, and delivering reliable results.

I’m an Industrial Chemist based in Tunisia with hands-on laboratory experience from internships, including analyses with Rock-Eval 6, ICP, ion chromatography, and UHPLC, plus gas chromatography and mass spectrometry work. I’ve also completed lab testing aligned with ISO/IEC 17025 and European standards, operating HPLC, infrared spectrometers, and UV photometers.

I also bring a strong communication and research mindset: as a Research Fellow (Volunteer - Remote), I conduct research on human sexuality and reproduction in space environments, co-author publications, and support grant writing. Through my ambassador and panelist roles, I promote open science and inclusive STEM education—organizing workshops and using VR-based experiences to engage learners from diverse backgrounds.
