Technical Projects, Labs, and Research
Lab Assistant for R&D Pilot Plant Lab at Church & Dwight Co (Temp Position) June 2017 – Dec 2017
Assisted the lab technician in the execution of customer cleaning trials within the R&D ArmaKleen group
Responsibilities for this job included performing cleaning trials and lifting components required for the cleaning trials, logging information onto log sheets, and execute testing of components and initiate reports
Tested and ran industrial parts to test the different components of spray washers, ultrasonic washers, etc, while also testing water based cleaners, aqueous based paint and ink removers
CAD Project (Package Engineering related) – Rutgers University September 2016 – December 2016
Worked on an intricate water bottle design using Solidworks
Concept was to allow for the bottle cap to remain attached to the bottle to prevent loss of the cap itself
Used advanced techniques in the program to help accomplish this task due to attempts in mimicking mechanical properties
Medical Device Development Project – Rutgers University September 2015– May 2016
Assisted in the design of a tactile transducer with the hope of re-stimulating neural pathways that were once closed in stroke victims
This project is a prototype but could have patent potential in the near future
A business plan was made to present possible market value for our design
The Effect of Swelling Ratio on the Coulter Underestimation of Hydrogel Microsphere Diameters- Research Assistant, Professor Ronke Olabisi, Rutgers University May 2014 – August 2015
Cell culture experience, maintained hydrogel-encapsulated cells in incubators in complete culture medium and evaluated their viability
Organ Transplants using T.E. Techniques - Rutgers University September 2014 - December 2014
Research paper discussing the remodeling of the appendix for the use as an allograft or autograft for Organ transplant
Helped to create the concept to use the appendix as a scaffold for needed organ transplants to reduce wait time for transplant and rejection rates
Developed methods using Tissue Engineering techniques in accomplishing that goal
Involvement / Community Service
