Inspected laboratories using animals for compliance with university and government policies, reviewed protocols for animal use, attended monthly meetings to discuss animal use at the university

I assisted the chief safety officer to neutralize elementary waste, update museum specimen collection with proper storage conditions, correct EPA violations, inventory chemicals, create a chemical database, labeling chemicals with the proper ID codes, and participate in an EPA audit.

Developed an assay using fluorescence with Thioflavin T to study the formation of amyloid fibrils in the presence of metal ions using beta-2-microglobulin (expressed in E. coli)Presented at the 19th annual Texas Protein Folders Conference.

Assisted the laboratory instructor in the creation of a positive learning environment for the students enrolled in the course and aided the students in their acquisition of the skills, techniques, concepts, and factual material required by the course. Courses taught include General Chemistry, Biochemistry, Energy Fuel the Need, Wine Making

I used a drosophila model to study ARC syndrome, a multi-system, autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in two human genes, Vps33B and Vps16B. These genes play important roles in membrane fusion events and mutations in these genes can cause defects in motor units, kidney epithelia, and bile secretion.

Successfully gelled an ionic liquid, 1-methyl-3-octylimidazolium chloride, using the Carr Family organogelator (C6C12 bisurea) into a conductive ionic gel with the goal of improving efficiency in energy storage and waste reduction
