Describe your daily routine as a chemist.

"I start my day by checking in with my team. I review emails and address any emergencies or requests. A typical day involves carrying out lab work to develop and improve new and existing products. This can include developing formulations in the lab, testing the quality and performance of a material, and reporting the results of this work to the team or project leader. Once suitable systems are found, the process is scaled up to a production trial. A typical day may also include talking with customers to determine what they require from a product, collecting feedback, and working with suppliers to determine what products they can offer that may be suitable for a given project."
