• Environmental monitoring of non-aseptic/aseptic production areas and personnel• LAL testing of WFI, clean steam, and reverse osmosis water systems• Water bioburden, microbial analysis and TOC testing • Particulate testing of final product, in process beads and vials• Identification of BCG using gram stain• Dry weight determination of product using LOD chamber• Manage laboratory test and results using LIMS• Viability testing of un-lyophilized and final product

• Mentored over 30+ students for three semesters as a teaching assistant for EVS 4007 (Intro to Environmental Science) during Spring 2015, Fall 2015 and Spring 2016• Conducted vital research at NOAA Laboratory (Cooperative Oxford Laboratory) using the Health Assessment Index which drove the characterization of the health of the Choptank Habitat Focus Area and Morone americana (white perch) populations• Incorporated a new health metric (flow cytometry) to the Health Assessment Index by differentially staining white perch blood cells using a lipophilic dye which provided further insight into the overall fish health of white perch

• Conducted health assessments of 160 white perch • Introduced blood chemistry composition analysis to the Health Assessment Index for white perch plasma using the ChemWell T chemistry analyser

• Conducted health assessments of 251 white perch • Conducted research on fish health assessment where technical expertise in field sampling, gross pathology, necropsy, bacteriology, histopathology biochemical and cell analysis were developed under the guidance of Maryland DNR and NOAA scientist
