Teaching Assistant for CHEM 174: Advanced Physical Chemistry Laboratory I. This course covers fundamental electronic components, electrochemical applications such as redox and pH titrations, and electrochemical methods such as amperometry, linear and cyclic voltammetry, and impedance spectroscopy.

Working as a member of the Ji Group in the Department of Chemistry.- Synthesized phosphorus based nanomaterials through chemical vapor deposition processes for characterization of novel materials- Constructed single wire and thin film devices of phosphorus metal halide materials for electrical characterization of novel materials- Generated Raman spectra for phosphorus nanochains using GAMESS to support experimental data- Instructed new undergraduate students on laboratory procedures to prepare them to work individually- Collaborated with graduate students and professors to develop effective experimental methods and explain the underlying theories

-Prepared solutions of biosurfactants to analyze the physical properties for possible applications-Troubleshooted QCM-D and Dynamic Light Scattering instrumentation for further application testing-Worked closely with a multidisciplinary team for a holistic understanding of the project

- Performed cues for major productions to ensure the smooth running of shows- Participated in load-ins and load-outs with crews of 25+ people to build and take down shows- Collaborated with senior stagehands to learn the skills required to assist with cues
