•Characterized double stranded RNA foci that form in the nuclei of C. elegans with specific mutations in ALS associated genes, such as a deletion of tdp-1, an ortholog of the ALS associated human TDP-43. •Identified critical time points for foci formation and dissipation and a possible link between dsRNA foci formation and the formation of HSF-1 stress granules in C. elegans•Developed technical skills such as immunocytochemistry, fluorescence microscopy, integration, tissue culture, and C. elegans husbandry•Funded by a fellowship award

•Engaged clients to identify how XINET's enterprise level digital asset management platform would meet their business needs•On-site client visits with technical sales staff for live product demonstration and implementation discussions•Vendor/client relationship management•Team lead on RFP projects for Fortune 500 companies•Sourced and cultivated new clients/markets to expand client base
