I received my Bachelor of Science in Bio-industry from University Putra Malaysia, Serdang. After graduation, I began work as a researcher at Malaysian Rubber Board (MRB) in 2004, investigating the use of ethephon and ethylene to increase rubber yield in Hevea brasiliensis. I am still employed by MRB and they are sponsoring my doctoral studies at The Ohio State University (2012-2017) on rubber particle ontogeny and influence of environmental stress on rubber biosynthesis in multiple rubber-producing species.
