Culturing and maintaining NIH 3T3 murine fibroblasts and Huh-7 human liver cancer cells, Developing a standard procedure to quantitatively evaluate residual viral activity on textiles, specifically HCoV-229E, Investigating the optimal method of electrospinning a decellularized cardiac tissue polymer into scaffolds for cardiac cells to create functional cardiac tissue

Currently working with first generation undergraduate students to improve their understanding of Elements of Calculus, Engineering Calculus I and II, and Organic Chemistry I.

Independently taught principles of high school and college level chemistry, physics, and materials science to kids age 9-13 through 1.5-hour abridged lessons with an associated laboratory experiment. Helped campers develop skills for keeping a scientific laboratory notebook. Practiced proper laboratory safety methods. Mentored high school student volunteers to prepare for being a full-time counselor in the future.Also lead camps for kids ages 5-8 with simplified versions of advanced science experiments and lessons. Adjusted lesson difficulty to age group and abilities. Incorporated math, writing, and critical thinking skills into lessons.Managed logistics of camper check-in, check-out, served as point of contact between parents and directors, and mediated conflicts among campers.

Performed tensile strength and puncture tests, analyzed results, Prepared formal presentations and delivered them to a cross-functional audience, Engaged in group meetings to assess product development progress and learned to effectively communicate in a professional setting, Prepared and presented standard operating procedures for examining cross sections of cardiac stents with a Keyence digital microscope
