- Worked in an interdisciplinary team to care for a research insectary - General insect maintenance including: feeding, breeding, cleaning, and infection experiments - Analyzed large datasets, creating publication ready figures

- Explored newly discovered polar body fate of the model organism, C. elegans using genetic screens, CRISPR/Cas9, and microscopy techniques (4D video, confocal, multi photon, spinning disk) - Presented at international conferences - Collaborated on scientific publications

Leading a team of college students to implement a course for local home-schooled children to learn and experience scientific research

- Led courses to help students understand biology and genetics concepts (classes consisted of roughly 25 students) -Assisted in the design, preparation, and running of biology and genetics course laboratories

- Enforced parking rules and regulations to ensure compliance within parking facilities - Conducted regular patrols and issued citations to violators - Collected and analyzed statistical data on parking utilization and trends - Contributed insights for strategic decision-making to optimize parking operations - Managed issuance of parking passes and permits, ensuring proper documentation and administration Developed skills in regulatory compliance, data analysis, customer service, and administrative tasks

Explored cell signaling pathways involved in determining epithelial cell fate

- Managed daily operations at an apple orchard, overseeing cash register operations and ensuring smooth functioning of the facility - Supervised and supported team members, providing guidance and assistance as needed - Conducted product inventory to maintain stock levels and ensure availability for customers - Participated in selling products at markets - Played a key role in marketing initiatives, contributing ideas and strategies to promote our products effectively

Studying the affects of temperature on C. elegans fertility and heat shock protein expression using PCR, qPCR, and genetic screens.
