* ********** ****/ ********* **** more than three years of research
experience ranging from creating theoretical molecular models to performing
real world bench top experiments. Utilized mathematical equations across
various wavelengths of light to explain how different species of
phytoplankton coexistence within various bodies of water. Most recent bench
top project involved examining the stability of biomedical tests that use
various bodily fluids stored at different temperatures over a course of
time. Recognized by principal investigators as a valuable member of the
research team with the ability to make conclusive interpretations and
abstractions from data given by experiments. Highly motivated and a team
player with a proven record of building and maintaining strong scholastic
relationships.
