Berkeley, California, United States

Managed customer relations, including generating sales, designing application-based solutions, and providing technical support in the materials science, chemistry, and life science market sectors.Acted as a liaison between the customer and the headquarters located in Germany, and collaborated with other Sales Engineers to develop customized positioning solutions.Performed administrative tasks to process orders and repairs in the midst of a company-wide ERP transition, while juggling requests from around one hundred different clients.

Berkeley, California, United States

Revealed novel charge transfer dynamics and anomalous field screening between graphene andelectron acceptors in atomically thin transistors measured using AC and DC transport techniques.

Berkeley, California, United States

Trained and qualified users on 4 tools by discussing processes and observing tool operation.Emphasized safety procedures associated with each tool to prioritize safe operation.

Berkeley, California, United States

Fabricated microscopic electrochemical cells using e-beam lithography, reactive-ion etching, andmetal thin film deposition to investigate electrochemical and electronic properties of 2D systems.Reduced energetic barriers by 50% for electrochemical Li-ion intercalation into atomically thin interfaces by layering 2D materials with electron acceptors using inert atmosphere dry transfer.Collaborated with theorists to calculate the energetic barrier of intercalant insertion, which revealed unprecedented mechanistic insight for intercalation in the presence of electron acceptors.

Berkeley, California, United States

Acted as a liaison between lab members and EHS to develop and maintain standard operating procedures (SOPs) that are consistent with EHS and Cal/OSHA safety guidelines.Managed chemical inventory and waste systems, inspected lab spaces daily for compliance, trained new members in general safety protocols, and corrected any infractions within the lab.

Berkeley, California, United States

Course: General Chemistry Laboratory, 500 students.Awarded Outstanding Graduate Student Instructor, which is earned by 10% of GSIs each year.Led team of 20 GSIs, managed course materials and website, and presented course-wide lectures.

Cambridge, Massachusetts, United States

Synthesized metallic clusters coordinated to multi-dentate ligands using air-free glovebox methods.Controlled the reactivity of metallic clusters with organic azides to achieve 3 distinct products confirmed by 1H NMR and X-ray crystallography by exploiting solvent and steric effects.Observed complex magnetism in novel air-sensitive metallic clusters using SQUID magnetometry.PRISE Summer Researcher 2015

Cambridge, Massachusetts, United States
