My work is twofold: Air Quality monitoring professional and independent scientist working on adsorptive materials as a means to mitigate ambient air pollutants.
I am the Project Leader at Manylabs, an open science nonprofit. My work, which has been funded through the California Air Resources Board as a Supplemental Environmental Project, uses low-cost and non-regulatory monitoring equipment to measure Volatile Organic Compounds and PM 2.5 pollutants in the Eastern Neighborhoods of San Francisco.
My ongoing research on Open Panel Adsorption, involving using panels of granular activated carbon placed in polluted ambient urban locations to adsorb VOCs, is carried out through the Counter Culture Labs community science lab in Oakland, California.
