    I manage more than a dozen projects spanning the entire all-solid-state battery, from anode to cathode, from the lab to the production line. While two technicians help me with experiments, I still have a hands-on approach for novel methods and protocols I develop. I also have close collaborations with academia for collaborative projects where I make sure collaboration agreements are sound, deadlines are met and budgets are respected.
