Showed dependability by staying late into the night and completing this physically demanding job (vacuuming, bathroom cleaning, etc.) in spite of severe personal trialExhibited teamwork by striving to follow and submit to district rules, by responding promptly to emergent needs of teachers or school leaders, and by being aware of my own shortcomings and not being critical or impatient with others Operated an extractor machine, autoscrubber, and a disinfection machine/sprayer at different times Helped protect the safety of others, by carefully checking door locks (as taught) and reporting and addressing pestsFinished the contract length and then opted to not continue this role for the 2023-2024 school year

Helped improve a compression testing method for Quality Assurance that effectively distinguished variations in mix formulationRecognized positive efforts while training others on Compression TestingExhibited flexibility in performing diverse responsibilities such as root cause analyses, inspecting mattress components, and working overtime to train compression testersProactively improved my individual area while communicating to others (requesting a safety rail, creating a physical cleanup checklist, labeling tool and parts locations, and exemplifying cleanliness)Prepared for a Gauge Repeatability and Reproducibility study, communicated learnings of compression work to the Georgia branch, and contributed and was supportive in a meeting to further improve quality assurance effortsRecognized an ability to improve my own integrity and accuracy while working for leaders who also valued thisPart of a general layoff (100+ lost jobs from my understanding)

Grantsville, Utah, United States

Loaded boxes in trailers via conveyor for distribution to Walmart stores in the regionMy trainer said something to the effect of, that I was "above the curve", when giving feedback on my performanceSupported the team by practicing good housekeeping, reporting safety concerns (broken lights, damaged stools, frayed wiring)Exhibited patience with others while leading by example in following policy I was scheduled for an overtime shift (this was communicated verbally to me). After further communication I was told I was not needed (verbally). I was then scheduled anyway and penalized for this no call, no show, which gave me disciplinary points sufficient to make me eligible for termination.

Dugway, Utah

Exhibited and supported transparency in my work (sharing ideas, mistakes, safety concerns) to facilitate learning and progressDeveloped strategies for efficient analysis of hazardous waste samples within procedural and safety protocolGained experience with mercury analysis (cold vapor atomic absorption spectrometry)Achieved a relative percent difference of zero (approximately) in duplicate heat content analyses frequently, demonstrating the reproducibility of my workMagnified role by striving to learn the big picture of the incineration operation and learning associated supporting science to improve my workI reported a coworker for an integrity concern. I tried to utilize appropriate channels, but do believe in and try to support transparency. After being written up for harassment as the only known outcome of this concern, I lost trust in the lab management. The general manager sided with the lab manager and I was terminated without any logical explanation of my original integrity concern. I did verbally speak out about the wrongness that was being experienced.

Magna, Utah

I had the great opportunity to mentor and teach students in a variety of science subjects (Chemistry, Physical Science, Earth Science, Biology, Physics, and Environmental Science).With the help of kind and patient mentors to myself, and with time, I came to empathize with the hardships the boys had experienced and hope that I provided help and hope for them, so that they knew they were of great individual value.With this mutual respect, I am confident that there was a steady increase in the overall science progress. I learned to tailor the class (science spotlight presentations (or not), field trips (or not)) to what was helpful for the boys, while considering the "moving parts" of the treatment center. I documented frequently asked questions, commonly missed test questions, and personal interests of my students to inform my preparation for teaching. This job ended for me when the company restructured their science program (my position was eliminated).

Salt Lake City, Utah

(I was tasked with planning and performing bench-scale testing on various client waste stream samples. These laboratory test results were interpreted to provide recommendations and sizing information for full-scale WesTech process equipment. Liquid-solid separation testing included processes such as lime softening, vacuum filtration, ballasted and conventional sedimentation, and dissolved air flotation.)Exercised problem solving skills to manage unique waste stream characteristics (viscosity, turbidity, corrosivity, alkalinity, degradability, etc.)Traveled to WesTech client locations and did on-site bench testingCollaborated in preparing laboratory reports and making recommendations to clients for prospective process equipmentWorked on challenging projects that stretched my abilities, but also admittedly required beyond the talent and skills that I had at the time perhapsMy employment was terminated after not meeting performance goals in this competitive field. My direct supervisor praised my punctuality, politeness, and work ethic.
