Organized a team of undergraduate engineering students to construct an artificial jellyfish robot from artificial muscle polymers. Provided assistance in strategic project planning and facilitate safe chemical operations. Developed protocols to synthesize muscle variants to test theories for muscle actuation.

In lecture, laboratory, and small group environments, I had the unique opportunity to teach ten different chemistry and biochemistry courses during my tenure at UC San Diego. Spanning the range from graduate-level to so-called "chemistry for poets" courses and subjects covering all disciplines of chemistry, I was able to work with a diverse range of.

Conducted dissertation research to investigate the possibility of using DNA-metal conjugates for supramolecular assemblies. During this time, built and managed an academic laboratory and taught ten different courses in ten semesters.

As a student researcher with Nobel Laureat Richard Smalley, I was at first enthralled by the opportunity, as I expressed it, "It's a pleasure working for you, Professor Smalley." His curt response made every indication of the tenor of our relationship: "Stop right there. Two things. First, my name is Rick. Second, you work with me, not for me."My tenure in.
