Emeryville, CA

I oversee a small team within High Throughput Screening that develops and runs LC/MS-based high-throughput assays. This technology platform, that I operationalized, has enabled 96-well screening on new molecule types and increased sample throughput 10x within the last year.

Emeryville, CA

Developed GC/MS and LC/MS-based assays to support R&D project needs. Participated in and eventually led a team that developed and operationalized a new technology platform for high-throughput LC/MS-based screening with a sample throughput of 6000+ samples/day.

South San Francisco, CA

Developed derivatization methods and extraction methods to confirm metabolite identities by GC/MS. Implemented enzymatic kit assays to confirm metabolite identities. Ran UPLC-UV and –RI methods for organic acid profiles, and developed key parameters for method accuracy and precision. Developed and ran derivatization-based UPLC-UV methods for amino acid.

Hayward, CA

Developed methods to meet analytical needs for biological and chemical engineering R&D, including implementing AOCS and USP standard methods for oil analysis, as well as adapting literature methods to suit analytical needs. Automated and scaled up these methods on a Tecan Freedom EVO 100 liquid-handling robot. Routinely analyzed 50-100 samples per day for.

Alameda, CA

Worked on a cross-functional team to develop and scale up an algae lipid extraction process. Designed and executed experiments to achieve scale-up goals. Developed analytical HPLC capacity. Participated in scale up of analytical capacity that increased routine fatty acid profiles analysis sample load from 24 samples per day to 100 samples per day by.

Lexington, MA

Represented the Analytical group in cross-functional and cross-site drug product team meetings, developed HPLC assays, designed and executed drug product stability programs for inclusion in governmental regulatory filings for clinical trials in the UK. Performed GC-FID and GC/MS analyses using preexisting methods. Documented work in lab notebook.

Lexington, MA

Supported drug substance and drug product development programs under the supervision of an Analytical representative, developed HPLC-UV assays and assisted in analyses involving LC/MS/MS, GC/MS, LC-RI, and fluorescence detection. Performed drug concentration analyses on air filter samples to determine machine safety for small-scale drug product.
