I have been doing IT work for several dental offices over the years including American Bright Dental, Grand Orthodontics, and Aero Dental Group DTLA. My work includes diagnosing both hardware and software issues and replacing hardware parts if necessary. Over the course of my work I have replaced many PSU's, motherboards, hard drives, and have set up local networks for file sharing and program compatibility between multiple devices. I have encountered many difficult malicious attacks in which a little problem solving and corrective measures have recovered many PC's.

I oversaw the maintenance, training, waste disposal, and lab safety following OSHA guidelines within Dr. Ted Yu's Battery Engineering lab at California State University, Long BeachWithin my time conducting research I have designed experiments in lithium/sulfur battery technology using newly developed techniques and have analyzed products with procedures such as FTIR Spectroscopy and XRD.Gained extensive experience using an argon filled glove box for construction of lithium/sulfur batteries.My project involved synthesizing electrode materials and electrolytes that are used in lithium/sulfur battery systems under an air and water free environment.Data from the batteries was analyzed using a NEWARE battery testing system which exported data to excel where mathematical techniques were employed to interpret the findings.My work has been presented at multiple undergraduate and graduate conferences on campus. My team also achieved 1st place at the 2016 IEEE Green Energy and Smart Systems Conference in the student poster competition. The findings have also been accepted to be presented by a still current undergraduate student at the 2017 annual ECS meeting in New Orleans to an audience with high expertise in the fields of electrochemistry and chemical energy systems.
