Theo received her Ph.D. in cancer biology at the University of South Australia in 2015 where she worked in the laboratory of Prof. Shudong Wang studying the therapeutic potential of a protein target in cancer. During her Ph.D., she managed to extend her skills by deploying a multidisciplinary approach comprising computational structural biology, biochemical and cell biology, to facilitate her research analysis. Theo continued to pursue her research as a postdoctoral research associate in the same group upon the completion of her Ph.D. for a year.

After that, she spent 2.5 years working in the industry with Intertek Agricultural company, where she was able to operate a series of high throughput SNPline PCR genotyping system to help farmers in selecting the desired markers for the plant breeding program. She is also experienced in producing data in the application for NATA accreditation. Theo is currently engaging in several drug discovery projects under the guidance of Prof. Shudong Wang.
