    "summary": "My research interests lie at the intersection of Industrial Ecology, Life Cycle Assessment, and the transition towards a circular bioeconomy. Through academic research and industry experience, I have developed a strong interest in understanding how bio-based materials, resource efficiency strategies, and circular systems can contribute to reducing environmental impacts while creating long-term value. As first author of a peer-reviewed LCA publication on bamboo-based products, I gained hands-on experience in inventory modelling, allocation methods, environmental assessment, and the evaluation of bio-based production systems. I am particularly motivated by research that combines scientific rigor with practical applications, helping to guide the development of more sustainable materials, technologies, and resource systems.",
