ABOUT ME

I am currently a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Foundation for Research and Technology (FORTH) Hellas and the Center for the Study of Air Quality and Climate Change in the Pandis and Nenes Group. My research interests include oxidative in-cloud processes that lead to sulfate formation, chemical mechanisms affecting particulate matter composition, emissions from everyday used rubber surfaces and the effect of atmospheric pollution on human health. You can find more detailed information here.

​

After receiving my PhD, I became a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Chemistry, Germany, in the Multiphase Chemistry Department at the Pöschl Group in the Berkemeier Research Group.

​

On 2020, I received my PhD in Engineering Sciences at Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Harvard University, USA. I conducted my Phd in the Group of Professor Frank N. Keutsch on Atmospheric Chemistry (Keutsch Group).

​

On 2018, I received my MSc in Engineering Sciences at Harvard University, USA, in the first 1.5 years of my PhD program studies.

 

Prior to Harvard I received my BS/Diploma on 2016 in Environmental Engineering at Technical University of Crete, Greece.

​

In addition to my scientific interests I am an active volleyball and beach volleyball athlete, I enjoy running, playing the piano and traveling.

​

I was born in the European paradise, as I like calling it, in Thessaloniki and raised in Chania, Crete, Greece.
