Goleta, Ca, Us

- Led technical development of novel formulation projects targeted at unlocking new product categories or improving commercial formulation attributes (i.e performance, visual aesthetics, cost reduction, etc.)- Utilized iterative DoEs to take novel formulations from ideation to commercialization- Characterized lipid-based emulsions (Rheology, DSC, DLS, etc.) and related structural properties to performance trends- Developed formulation cost models in JMP for new formulations to provide design space bounds - Identified formulation mixing process and scale up bounds which helped reduce in field mixing failures- Implemented playbooks for raw material testing and validation- Worked cross functionally with regulatory, EHS, quality, and field teams on deployment and commercialization of formulations

Goleta, Ca

- Synthesized and purified various small molecules for formulation testing and characterization- Developed cGMP crystallization processes from benchtop to kilogram scale- Generated documentation (SOPs, MBRs, PFDs, etc.) for production and scale up- Assisted in tech transfers to CMOs and Toll Manufacturers- Led cGMP campaigns for multiple chemical manufacturing processes at the kilogram scale to validate processes and test material at scale- Worked with third part on pilot plant design involving iterative process development and P&ID review

Vacaville, Ca

Primarily responsible for helping optimize the ways in which discrepancy are dealt with in the lab operations branch of quality assurance. To streamline and facilitate the delivery of information to different quality assurance specialists I designed an internal website employees could access for helpful contacts, templates, flowcharts and much more. This position relies on collaborating and communicating with other QA specialists in a team dynamic setting.

My job include both lab and field work, which was preformed independently and in conjunction with other colleagues .The field work occurred at various field sites and included the collection and processing of different biological samples, both avian and reptiles. After, data was then input accurately in various spreadsheets to related physical characteristics to trends in the different species. All lab work was carried out in the USGS Mercury lab where I was responsible for the processing and preparation of different avian samples for the mass spectrometer.
