Conducted 28-day nickel and copper toxicity tests on two different clades in the Hyalella azteca cryptic species complex. Water and tissue metal concentrations were measured using Graphite Furnace Atomic Absorption Spectrometry, and then statistically analyzed to determine whether the two clades exhibited differing metal sensitivity when assessing mortality, bioaccumulation, and growth. Concluded that one clade was significantly more tolerant to metal toxicity when assessing mortality and bioaccumulation. Responsibilities included animal culturing, recording weekly juvenile mortality, refreshing media and analyzing water quality, and species delineation by DNA sequencing.

Mammalian Reproduction - BIOL 473 (September 2012, 2013, 2014)Human Anatomy - BIOL 301 (January 2013, January 2014)Introduction to Applied Microbiology - BIOL 241 (May 2013)Engineering Biology Laboratory - BME 184L (January 2015)Led a total of 13 laboratory sessions, and accumulated over 900 hours of student interactions. General responsibilities included helping students understand laboratory techniques and pertinent theory that were evaluated in the form of reports and quizzes. Also acted as a mentor and provided support outside of the laboratory sessions throughout the term. As a result of exceptional service and dedication to helping the students, high evaluation scores were received at the end of each term.BME184L was offered for the first time in January 2015. I had the opportunity to be one of two teaching assistants that played a fundamental role in providing feedback to the coordinators as the course involved the collaboration between the faculty of Biology and Engineering. The students were expected to follow Biology department rules and were taught how to properly write a scientific report.

Improved laboratory work efficiency and reduced physical stress by implementing a new standardized protocol. Also, ensured good animal health by following a strict feeding regime, and changing the simulated lake water each week. Animal data was meticulously collected and input it into an organized binder to allow for easy access by the graduate student. Other tasks included testing water quality, collecting DNA samples for sequencing, and conducting allozyme analyses.

Peer Leader for the China 2+2 Program, which involved being a mentor for international students from China. Anxiety and loneliness for the students were reduced by organizing weekly events to help adjust them to Canadian culture. In addition, weekly conversation groups were directed to promote confidence in English communication. This resulted in being distinguished by the students, especially for providing outstanding care and conducting weekly one-on-one visits.
