I’ve been teaching pesticide chemistry, biochemistry, environmental chem... istry, organic chemistry, general chemistry, university chemistry, and pollution chemistry courses at the Institute of Chemistry, University of the Philippines Los Baños (UPLB) for 14 years. Teaching chemistry is my passion. I love teaching those courses to students; hence, I am very dedicated in making sure that my students learn so well and I give my very best in teaching. I graduated Bachelor of Science in Chemistry, cum laude at the University of the Philippines Los Baños, and also Master of Sciences in Chemistry at the University of the Philippines Los Baños. I have published 36 chemistry-related research papers in international and national journals and conference proceedings. My research projects focused on organic chemistry, physical chemistry, inorganic chemistry, pesticide chemistry, weed chemistry, allelopathy, environmental chemistry, natural products chemistry and nanotechnology. I have been involved in revising four chemistry laboratory manuals and wrote a worktext on chemistry of agricultural chemicals. I was awarded the 2018 Outstanding Researcher (Junior Category), College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Los Baños, 2016 Outstanding Junior Faculty, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Los Baños, and Best Paper Award, Weed Science Society of the Philippines (WSSP) Category in the 44th Pest Management Council of the Philippines Annual Conference. I am a lifetime member of Kapisanang Kimika ng Pilipinas, member of UPLB Natural Products Research, UPLB Chemical AA (alumni association). I also became a member of Integrated Chemists of the Philippines.read more
