Two-year fellowship program with the Spartan Light Metal Makerspace, leading hands-on workshops that engage over 150 participants in innovative project creation and skill development, enhancing community engagement and collaboration. Researched functional prototyping applications of 3D printing, including how other makerspaces address design concerns, aspects to consider when designing a part for functional prototyping, and tested the pull-out strength of heat-set inserts. Wrote a paper on successful functional prototyping with 3D printing and developed a training module for users of the SLMP Makerspace based on it.

Worked with the Process Sciences Labs’ Downstream Investigation High Throughput Automation & Analytics team to determine if PhyTips could be equivalent to current high-throughput purification methods. Engaged in comprehensive training on three distinct liquid handling platforms and ensured consistent protocol adherence across projects.
