About me

I'm a cosmetic scientist and formulation chemist with a Master of Science in Cosmetic Science and over five years of hands-on experience developing innovative beauty products. My passion lies in creating high-performance haircare, skincare, and body care formulations that align with clean beauty standards and market demands. I specialize in translating creative concepts into commercially viable products, working seamlessly across formulation strategy, ingredient selection, and regulatory compliance. With a background in both technical chemistry and customer-facing retail, I bring a unique perspective that bridges scientific expertise with consumer insights. I'm dedicated to helping emerging beauty brands bring their visions to life through expert formulation guidance and collaborative product development.
