• 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). Plant genome sequences: past, present, future. Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 48. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pbi.2018.11.001)• 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.• Created and presented detailed reports on the current state of desalination technologies and possible innovations.• Proposed novel desalination inventions and am funded to demonstrate proof of concept with physical experiments using working knowledge of CAD, 3D printing, microfluidics, electronics, and chemistry.• Strong reputation for managing multiple projects, delivering valuable results, and being enjoyable to work with.• 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+ five-star reviews.• 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/

• 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.• Built pre-amplifiers and other small electronics for testing with low current devices.• Designed, 3D-printed, and had machined through vendors experimental parts (AFM modifications, sample holders, etc.).• Worked with a PCB assembly vendor to troubleshoot the process of wire bonding to very sensitive low current devices.• Implemented wafer cleaning and silanization chemistries for the immobilization of nanoparticles to a surface.• Read scientific literature in several disciplines in order to help with building relevant experiments.

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.• Used Nanodrop, Qubit, and Agilent Bioanalyzer machines and implemented Ampure bead purification, gel electrophoresis, and PCR amplification to help classify problems with biological components.

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.

• 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.
