I'm Ehsanul Alam, and I'm 35 years old. My journey started in Chittagong, Bangladesh, where I was born. I earned my Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering from the Islamic University of Technology, which laid the foundation for my future. After my Bachelor's, I seized the opportunity to pursue a Master's degree with the prestigious Erasmus Mundus Scholarship. During my time as a Erasmus Mundus scholar, I saw firsthand the valuable opportunities that the European educational system offers. I achieved a PhD in Mechanical Engineering from TU Darmstadt. It was a challenging and fulfilling experience, and it's shaped the way I approach problems and innovation. Now, I work in the Research and Development department of Wella Company, a place where my passion for science and innovation can shine. I'm constantly seeking out ways to make a positive difference through the development of products. Outside of the professional realm, I'm a person of diverse interests. Travelling is a source of inspiration and a way to experience new cultures and ideas. Cooking is my creative outlet, where I experiment with different cuisines and flavours. And, when time permits, I'm an avid football enthusiast.
