• Analyzing soon-to-be-published genomic information on 100+ rare and endangered native California plants. (Likely helping to increase the number plant draft-assemblies and sequencing data by 10%! Kearsey, P. J. (2019)..
• Adjunct professor teaching basic scripting, data analysis, and Amazon Web Services (AWS) for students/faculty in a university setting.
• Set up and documented a bioinformatics platform using AWS to implement and optimize genome assembly.
• Managed genome analysis projects, producing initial assemblies for dozens of unanalyzed endangered plants.
• Wrote Python and Bash scripts to analyze the implementation of a novel biotechnology for a startup.
• Reviewed scientific literature, patents, government documents, and books related to desalination and plant genetics.

• Authored, designed, and self-published a philosophy book consisting of essays on personal values and a dry-humor memoir of a multi-continent yearlong surf-expedition. 1000+ books circulated in 8 months with 40+.
• Produced a podcast that looks into the value-systems that provide fulfillment to interesting and successful people.
• Published 40+ episodes with over 4200+ downloads from nearly 50 countries so far.https://www.flintmitchell.com/http://seekingauthenticity.buzzsprout.com/

Bay Area, California

• Worked effectively with a highly diverse and innovative team to demonstrate the feasibility of a novel single-molecule sensitive genetic sequencing technology implementing quantum tunneling.
• Responsible for experimenting, building equipment, brainstorming, and presenting data in an interdisciplinary team.
• Leveraged the use of Python, MATLAB and Igor to acquire & analyze data to present results to internal audiences.
• Programmed scripts for control of and data transfer between electrical measurement instruments.
• Routinely used atomic force microscopy and scanning tunneling microscopy to characterize nanometer size features and surface-modifications.
• Built and programmed a microfluidic system for delivering fluids in specific volumes and procedures.

Santa Clara, California

• 2016 Summer Intern:
• Wrote first release of an analysis software pipeline that takes the raw output of the Genia sequencer and produces detailed results and statistics. (Python)
• Cleaned up, organized, and added to libraries of previously written machine operation code in order to create a platform upon which a scientist can personalize the sequencer’s many experimental variables. (Python)
• Created and Implemented new waveforms on the chip, providing a range of information about the system as well as its compatibility with biological components. (Python/C)
• Learned/implemented basic SQL and bash to help in categorizing and analyzing data
• Worked with the Genia sequencer to help optimize certain experimental variables.

Mountain View, California

• Summer 2015 Intern:
• Wrote the first draft of a troubleshooting and data analysis manual for the sequencer.
• Revised and updated protocols for sequencer operation.
• Worked with the Genia sequencer to help optimize certain experimental variables.
• Learned the operation of Nanodrop, Qubit, and Agilent Bioanalyzer machines and implemented Ampure bead purification, gel electrophoresis, and PCR amplification to help classify problems with biological components.

Dallas, Texas

• Worked 20 hrs/wk as a full time student and traveled with the team.
• Maintained and prepared gear for all practices and games.
• Recorded statistics and timestamps of important events during gameplay for further analysis during video sessions with the athletes (goals, breakaways, free kicks, substitutions, etc.)
• Collected wellness information on the players.

Watched and took care of kids while maintaining a fun, creative, and learning environment. Had an absolute blast.
