After 9 months I was promoted to Research Associate. I led the analytical team and directed diverse client-driven research projects. My daily tasks included evaluating environmental data of raw materials through various analytical techniques such as: XRD, XRF, dilatometry, chromatography, and more. On a monthly basis, I revised and maintained mineral databases for accuracy and compliance. I also conducted internal audits, instrument calibration, and document reviews to retain the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) accreditation at the National Brick Research Center.Other Highlights:Optimizes standard operations of procedures and implements new methods based on new knowledge gained from professional development opportunitiesSuccessfully extracted high-quality data from long term research projects for clientele Managed and trained students/new employees on how to efficiently collect, manage and interpret soil dataIndependently conducted quarterly verifications on equipment to confirm the reliability

I received my MS degree at Georgia State University. Due to my passion and enthusiasm for geoscience, I was chosen to be a teaching assistant in Structural Geology, Optical Mineralogy, and Natural Environments of Georgia. My thesis research hypothesized the relation of thermal maturity on structural features in Devonian black shales. This thesis will aid in the understanding and modeling of sedimentary basins.Other Highlights:Organized and presented hour-long lectures during designated lab times. Compiled grades and grade distributions for professors for multiple lab sessions.Assisted faculty with field and lab-based instruction like geologic mapping techniques, identifying rock formations, structural measurements, hypothesis development, and constructing geologic cross-sections.Taught lab courses for:• Structural Geology• Optical Mineralogy and Crystallography• Natural Environments of Georgia• Field Methods in Natural Resource Management• Introduction to Geology 1 & 2

American Grove is an online community dedicated to promoting knowledge and experiences of tree care. I served as the web administrator and social media director for over 3 years. Through this position, I could share my appreciation of nature by promoting the health and diversity of the nation's urban canopy through current content development and dissemination. My duties included attending and staffing meetings, volunteer events, and annual conferences.

Reston, Va

I spent the summer working under the tutelage of Dr. Miriam Jones on the project: Placing wetland accretion and vegetation in change associated with land-use change and sea-level rise into the Holocene context. I performed various laboratory analyses, including high-resolution measurements of peat properties, elemental analysis, and picking charcoal/plant macrofossils in preparation for stable isotope analysis, radiocarbon dating, and examining species changes with time.
