I actively contributed to several multi-disciplinary research projects spanning diverse fields such as microbial pathogenesis, genomics, next-generation sequencing, in vivo molecular imaging, and drug delivery in cancer mouse models. My work has yielded significant outcomes, including the development of a pioneering 3-dimensional small animal bioluminescence, fluorescence, and X-ray imaging device, which has garnered patents, publications, and successful licensing and commercialization by a prominent preclinical molecular imaging company.One of my notable achievements was securing a two-year research fellowship through the Auburn University Research Initiative in Cancer (AURIC) program, which provided a platform to further advance my contributions to cutting-edge research. This opportunity allowed me to collaborate with industry-leading experts, enabling me to push the boundaries of knowledge and innovation.My research endeavors encompassed a range of impactful projects. As the co-inventor and primary developer of an in vivo optical 3-dimensional imaging device, I played a key role in revolutionizing small animal imaging capabilities, enhancing the accuracy and depth of our understanding. Additionally, I actively participated in projects involving the construction of historically significant strains of Staphylococcus aureus for investigating antibiotic resistance, the exploration of species-specific preferences in Staphylococcus aureus pathogenesis, and the characterization of a highly potent antibiotic derived from soil-based Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, demonstrating its efficacy in inhibiting Staphylococcus aureus colonization in a cutaneous wound model.My contributions are demonstrated in the form of patents and publications of research findings. The impact of my work extends beyond academia, with successful commercialization and licensing of our imaging device by a leading preclinical molecular imaging company.

As a Lead Graduate Teaching Assistant for the Contemporary Aspects of Pharmacy Practice (CAPP) Lab, I took on a leadership role in enhancing the educational experience of pharmacy students. Working collaboratively with a dedicated team of teaching assistants, I successfully organized and supervised the preparation and setup of the laboratory, ensuring a conducive hands-on learning environment for pharmacy students.One of my key responsibilities was hands-on teaching, guiding pharmacy students through drug preparation assignments. By providing step-by-step instructions, offering valuable insights, and facilitating active learning, I have played a vital role in equipping students with practical skills essential for their future pharmacy practice. Additionally, I was entrusted with the important task of grading pharmacy students' drug products, providing constructive feedback to support their continuous growth and improvement.In addition to my teaching responsibilities, I was actively involved in proctoring lecture exams and OSCE qualification exams. My attention to detail, fairness, and adherence to established protocols have contributed to the smooth administration of these assessments, ensuring the integrity and validity of the evaluation process.
