MS Biotec is pioneering the use of the rumen-native bacteria Megasphaera elsdenii (NCIMB41125) to enable cattle producers to transition cattle to high energy diets faster and is the sole patent holder of this naturally-occurring bacteria. As a senior specialist in the Discovery Laboratory, I demonstrated novel applications of the company’s intellectual.

The Kansas Catholic Conference is the public policy arm of the Catholic Church in Kansas. As Legislative Assistant, I supported the endeavors of the KCC's Executive Director and lobbied the state Legislature on issues of concern to four Roman Catholic bishops--namely life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

As a Logistics Team Member in the back-room of Super-Target (Highlands Ranch, CO), I handled overstock daily. Primarily, I either pulled items from the warehouse shelves to replenish merchandise sold off the sales-floor, or I back-stocked overstock/deliveries onto the warehouse shelves. Both required the use of a hand-held PDA, and could also involve.

As a seminarian and candidate for priesthood, I lead two summer catechetical teams and assisted one youth mission: 1) The Salina Diocesan Youth Program and Totus Tuus are week-long Catholic vacation Bible schools, designed to instruct youth of all ages (K-12) in basic philosophy and Catholic theology. The programs emphasize learning, but in a fun and.

At HNTB, I drafted storm-water drainage networks on two highway reconstruction projects--Missouri Highway 13 near Collins and Interstate 70/KS Turnpike between Lecompton and East Lawrence.

Officially, my presence in the Sarlahi district along the southern border of Nepal secured government conservation monies for farmers in that disfranchised region of the country. Unfortunately, security risks prevented me from actually seeing much of the work begun. Therefore, I focused my energies in and around the district center of Malangwa where I.

For the Water Laboratory of the Bio/Ag Engineering Department, I collected water samples from streams across north-central Kansas and south-central Nebraska. Back in the lab, I assayed these samples for pesticide concentrations and/or plated them to determine total bacterial count. I also cleaned glassware, prepared samples and standards of wastewater for.
