About

I am a researcher working at the intersection of sustainability science, industrial ecology, and food systems. My work focuses on integrating life cycle assessment (LCA), techno-economic analysis (TEA), and behavioral insights to evaluate and promote sustainable technologies, particularly in food systems and circular economy transitions.

Details

My research focuses on advancing sustainable system design by integrating engineering, environmental assessment, and social science approaches. I specialize in combining life cycle assessment (LCA) and life cycle costing (LCC) with techno-economic analysis (TEA) to evaluate emerging technologies such as carbon utilization processes, food technologies, and recycling systems.
A key aspect of my work is bridging technological innovation with societal acceptance. I investigate how consumer behavior, policy frameworks, and digital technologies influence the adoption of sustainable solutions, particularly in food systems and circular economy contexts.
I have experience in interdisciplinary research involving experimental studies, survey design, and data analysis, including applications of machine learning and behavioral modeling. My recent work explores the development of integrated sustainability indices and the role of technological innovation in enhancing resilience and equity in future food systems.
Through my research, I aim to contribute to the design of sustainable and socially acceptable transitions toward a circular and low-carbon society.
