I am a molecular biologist by training (with MSc degrees in Genetics and Biophysics), a futurist by desire, an innovator by devotion, and an educator in my spare time, despite my occasional stuttering. After a quarter of a century in the field, including about 10+ years playing the open innovation market (and succeeding at it), I discovered my ikigai. However, providing practical solutions for large corporate players didn’t fuel my passion, so I decided to pivot. And here I am—transferring my knowledge of biochemistry and teaching literacy about skin and skincare.

Skincare should not be a blind purchase influenced by pushy sales reps, attractive influencers, or inflated claims from magazine ads. By educating yourself about your skin and skincare ingredients, you can save money, time, and ultimately avoid frustration. Plus, I enjoy sprinkling in some random facts. My courses primarily consist of screencasts—I’m more comfortable off-screen than on camera. If this approach resonates with you, come and join me. You’ll learn, I’m sure!
