Medical Laboratory Technology experience:I graduated from the Medical Laboratory Technology program at Shoreline Community College and passed the ASCP certifying exam in 2017. I accepted a Technologist position with BloodworksNW where I perform a variety of blood and compatibility tests on patient samples and process blood components for transfusion services within a hospital setting.Biotech Experience:Expertise in culturing and purifying DNA from the mini to mega scales. I optimized conditions, improving yields by more than 30% while maintaining quality and decreasing processing time by 35%. In collaboration with IT, developed an electronic database for tracking requests. Designed and performed extensive experiments to automate the DNA purification process and trained individuals across sites to decentralize the process. I have five years experience in molecular cloning. Skills include designing primers, running PCR, and cloning genes. Additional skills include gene soeing, tagging, and mutagenesis. In addition to cloning project specific genes, I helped generate a "genetic modifier" toolbox that included genes used to improve protein expression by up to four fold. Expertise in mammalian expression performing transient transfections and stable cell line development. Proficient in scales ranging from small scale (24 well deep blocks and shake flasks) to large scale (WAVEs and Bioreactors). I maintained research cell lines, developed stable cell lines, performed expression tests and productions for a variety of proteins, performed technical development experiments for cell culture development, measured, recorded and analyzed cell metabolics of productions and relayed information via reports and presentations to pertinent stakeholders.My background, ability to learn quickly, and desire to learn new skills provide me the flexibility to fulfill a variety of positions.
Listed skills include Cell Culture, Molecular Biology, Protein Expression, Biotechnology, and 26 others.
A career timeline built from the work history available for this profile.
Additional responsibilities include performing antibody identification reviews, editing/reviewing SOPs and maintaining inventories of laboratory supplies and blood products.
Perform compatibility testing on patient samples via automated (Immucor Echo analyzer) and manual (gel and tube) methods which include ABO/Rh typing, antibody screens and panels, and crossmatches. In addition, I perform direct antiglobulin tests (DAT) and process units of blood (plasma reduction of RBCs and platelets, plasma thawing, irradiation, RBC aliquots, etc.) to meet patient needs.
Responsibilities included stable cell line development and mammalian protein expression using CHO and HEK cell lines. Proficient with small scale deep well blocks (automated and manual) and shake flasks to large scale bioreactors and WAVEs. General responsibilities included performing technical development of cell culture parameters and methodology, expression tests, and productions; maintaining research cell lines; preparing cell culture media; and collecting and analyzing metabolic parameters… Show more Responsibilities included stable cell line development and mammalian protein expression using CHO and HEK cell lines.

In addition to DNA purification and small scale transient transfections, my responsibilities increased to include molecular cloning. I helped generate a "genetic modifier" toolbox used to improve protein expression. In addition, I worked to optimize the DNA purification process to fit Amgen's changing needs and transitioned the process to a decentralized, automated one that enabled a do-it-yourself as needed capacity and enabled me to focus on more company critical projects.
As part of the Molecular Biology team, my focus was DNA purification from the automated mini prep (using the QiaRobot) to the manual midi, maxi, mega, and giga prep scales. I worked to optimize the DNA purification process by evaluating a variety of processes and ultimately transitioning to a more automated process that improved yields by 30%, decreased cycle time by 35% and decreased costs by 25%. In 2002, my responsibilities expanded to include processing small scale (20mL to 2L shake flask)… Show more As part of the Molecular Biology team, my focus was DNA purification from the automated mini prep (using the QiaRobot) to the manual midi, maxi, mega, and giga prep scales.
