Alongside this research, I supported university athletic programs and events, connecting the study of sports accessibility with firsthand experience in the field.

Exploring sustainable alternatives to petroleum-based shoe materials, I researched agar-lignin composites and evaluated their drying behavior, moisture retention, physical stability, and antibacterial performance. Through experimentation, I identified lignin concentrations that balanced functionality and structural stability, contributing to the development of more sustainable material solutions.
