Since my early childhood, I have been interested in the secrets of the natural world and the invisible forces somehow working in it. Those were not simple curiosity but laid the foundations for my academic journey where I drive impactful research and operational outcomes through experimentation and data-driven insights.Throughout my academic and professional journey, I have developed my skills in molecular biology techniques, analytical skills and process improvement. I’m confident that my both technical expertise and soft skills will support to drive impactful outcomes in the medical research and manufacturing sectors. I hold a Master of Biotechnology from Griffith University, where I graduated with a GPA of 5.88 and received the Griffith Award for Academic Excellence in 2024. In my recent roles, I have successfully led and contributed to several significant projects.Key Achievements:🔹 As a research assistant, I applied molecular biology techniques such as cell culturing, PCR, biological assays, immunohistochemistry and DNA/RNA extraction. Performed molecular biology experiments and contributed to several significant projects.🔹 In my role as a Laboratory Analyst at Sanofi Consumer Healthcare, I have conducted precise analytical testing to ensure the quality of products. I improved the efficiency of testing by 10% and saved AUD 20,000 annually for the company.🔹 At Sanofi, I worked with different departments to resolve quality issues and improve processes by eyeballing better workflows while keeping 95% GMP quality standards. Hence, I’m confident about my professionalism, independency and teamwork skills.
