Research Interests: My research is driven by a strong interest in enhancing operational efficiency through the lens of sustainability, human behavior, and industrial safety. I am particularly focused on exploring how sustainable practices can be seamlessly integrated into operational systems while accounting for the behavioral dynamics of individuals and teams within these environments. By investigating the ways human factors—such as decision-making, compliance, and risk perception—interact with safety protocols and process design, I aim to develop frameworks that support safer, greener, and more effective operations.
