Responsible for writing SBIR/STTR grants in response to solicitations from a wide array of government agenciesScientist led research is performed in a team environment in conjunction with other scientists and techniciansAuthor and principle Investigator for multiple DARPA, Air Force and Army funded Phase I SBIR grants Principle Investigator of Phase II "success story" focused on colorimetric detection of contaminants in drinking water Coordinate scientific and engineering efforts between multiple companies and sites

I. Investigated stimulus responsive ionic liquid-based materialsDesigned, synthesized and characterized amide-containing ionic liquid, and investigated its self assembly characteristics in the presence of water Designed NMR and vibrational spectroscopy-based methods to investigate the unique characteristics of the interaction of amide-containing ionic liquids with water II. Designed mesoporous, biocompatible scaffold as support for membrane proteinsIntroduced the use of chemical additives to promote the formation of polystyrene bead templates upon which the scaffold supports are builtIntroduced the use of ionic liquids as the support medium for proteinsDevised a method for adapting solution phase polymerization conditions for polymerization of ionic liquids in thin layers

I. Investigated time-resolved protein kinetics using electrochemistry Proposed, designed and demonstrated viability of a anthraquinone-based electrochemical sensing system to investigate oligonucleotide-mediated electrochemistryInitiated investigation of time-resolved, electrochemical investigation of enzyme kineticsII.Synthetically modified oligonucleotides with anthroquinone as a marker in time resolved electrochemical methods for measuring oligonucleotide-protein interactions
