Developed, wrote, and edited original teaching material to instruct 24 high school students on STEM education and biological research in subjects specializing in Computational Biology and BioinformaticsGuided 4 students through an independent research project of their own design investigating the use of computational evolution tools and validation assays to assess the functionality of novel proteinsTrained students on biological databases, protein sequence evolution, python coding, microbial techniques, plasmid mapping, transformations, and bacterial growth assays

Taught over 250 students various bioinformatics and biological lab protocols including microscopy, bacterial transformation, determination of the rate of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction, DNA and protein gel electrophoresis, polymerase chain reaction, restriction digestion, and plasmid mappingExperienced with both in-person and online teaching and learning models

Mentored a wide age-range of diverse students over the summer in courses focused on coding, biology, anatomy and physiology, chemistry, physics, robotics, and filming animations
