-Developed model of microplastics settling in temperature-stratified lakes using Python to determine residence times in lake layers based on first principle assumptions

-Developed image analysis program in MATLAB to determine the persistence length of polymers through the application of the worm-like-chain model and polymer chain statistics-Verified program by comparing program’s results of DNA polymer persistence length to accepted results -Program will be applied to determine the persistence length of fibrin protofibrils using images taken by fellow laboratory members

-Developed both linear and nonlinear data assimilation algorithms for a system of 16 coupled nonlinear ODEs that replicates both calcium and voltage-driven alternans in a cardiac cell-Compared observability strength of the model's variables with data assimilation performance and estimation error-Identified which variables are more informative measurements for both types of alternans

-Planned lessons to provide academic support to students three times weekly in a variety of topics including high school math and SAT/ACT Prep-Adapted lessons to fit the needs of students and communicated with parents how these changes influenced their student’s learning

-Developed curriculum and executed swim lessons for groups of 5-8 children weekly to enhance their comfort in the water and swim skills-Conducted and recorded patients’ satisfaction surveys to ensure that patients’ needs were being met in the Rehabilitation Department

-Recorded patient data for the Renal Dialysis department twice daily to assist nurses and medical staff with patient care-Organized and reviewed five years’ worth of patient data to ensure that all information was up to date and located in the correct files

-Prevented and responded to medical emergencies on Pensacola Beach 3-4 days a week to ensure the safety of beach patrons while working closely with emergency medical responders and other lifeguards-Communicate with 100-200 beachgoers and swimmers daily to express water and weather conditions as well as safety concerns in the area
