Work Experience:
12/2010 - Present: Employed part-time as an agent with the Department of
Homeland Security, Transportation Safety Agency, One Airport Road,
Manchester, NH, screening passengers and baggage at the Manchester-Boston
Regional Airport. Routinely operate all screening devices, perform manual
pat-down searches as required, and serve as the front-line airport security
representative for passengers.
12/2007 - Present: Employed as a part-time/occasional sales associate at
Bath and Body Works, Pheasant Lane Mall, 310 Daniel Webster Highway,
Nashua, NH. Primary duties include shipping orders, stocking shelves and
setting up product displays.
07/2008 - 01/2009: Employed as a Inorganic Chemist at Saint Gobain High
Performance Materials, Northborough, MA. Prepared analytical samples of
production batches for glasses, ceramics, and abrasives. Samples were
prepared by digestion in hydrofluoric acid and fusion with lithium
tetraborate with batch composition analyzed using an Inductively Coupled
Plasma (ICP) mass spectrometer. Performed Soxhlet extraction in xylene and
methanol for ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) samples.
08/2007 - 05/2008: Employed as a Laboratory Research Assistant at Niagara
University. I performed differential scanning calorimetry to analyze
cholesteryl esters as they formed micelle-like structures in support of a
NSF-funded research project. As part of this research, I analyzed
biological mixtures using a Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GCMS) and
used the SYBYL analysis software, to determine the molecular structure
formed by the cholesteryl esters. I also researched the relevant subject
literature as published in the SciFinder database.
08/2006 - 08/2006: Employed as an ice hockey instructor for a Youth Summer
Camp at Niagara University. Supervised practices and drills. Instructed
goaltenders on skills and techniques.
