I have obtained my bachelor degree in Chemical Technology of Organic Substances at Kazakh National University named after Al-Farabi (2013) and master degree in Chemical Sciences (Organic Chemistry concentration) from University of Pennsylvania (2017). I have started my career path at National Laboratory Astana in 2017 as a junior researcher. Later, moved to work as laboratory assistant at Chemistry Department of Nazarbayev University in 2018. Half a year later, I was promoted to laboratory coordinator. From 2019 to 2023, I worked as senior laboratory coordinator at the School of Sciences and Humanities. In the beginning of 2023, I started as an instructor at the Chemistry Department of Nazarbayev University.
