R&D Engineer/Lab Manager at Harvest Terumo Plymouth MA, Oct 2013-Present
Established the R&D Blood lab at Harvest to analyze Bone Marrow aspirate sent from the field.
Developed and Implemented a new sample request and final report form, which summarizes the results for the
physicians.
Authored and Implemented Standard Operation Procedures (SOPs) to ensure the Lab is within OSHA, ISO and FDA
regulations for when the lab is audited.
Aided the Director of Operations and Regulatory to register Harvest products throughout Asia and Latin America.
Lead various clinical research for new Harvest cellular therapy products
Executed several validation protocols and authored the corresponding test / technical reports to validate the protocol.
Implemented a new product kit for sampling purposes.
Temp Lab Technician at Instrumentation Laboratory Bedford MA, June-Aug 2013
Worked on the GEM 4000-hemolysis device to analyze whole blood samples
Manipulated electrolytes, metabolites and gas levels in whole blood samples
Pharmaceutical Manufacturer at Nemucore Medical Innovations Worcester MA May-Aug 2012
Lead a group of Interns at Nemucore Medical to manufacture, test and analyze nanoparticles for the treatment of
ovarian cancer.
Data generated followed the ISO protocol and was used to support clinical trials.
ACADEMIC PROJECTS:
Developing a Biosensor to Monitor Glioblastoma Worcester MA Aug 2012-April 2013
Lead a group of four to create a biosensor with the ability to monitor the treatment of Glioblastoma Multiforme
Researched blood glucose monitors, biosensors, conductive polymer films and normal blood lactate levels.
Responsible for manufacturing the biosensor with single or multi-layer conductive polymer films to detect lactate
levels.
Created a 3D brain tumor model and performed lactate assay on the cells.
Creating Green Space and Rainwater Drainage of the Ladegårdsåen Copenhagen DK, Jan-May 2012
Worked on a team of three on the flood prevention and daylighting of Ladegårdsåen, an underground canal in Nørrebro
Denmark.

Created Solidworks drawing for the alternatives and final design for blood pressure assist device
Co-author the report and gave an oral presentation to a representative from Engineering World Health (EWH)
Worcester MA June 2011 – Aug 2011
Pure Uniaxial Stretch of Fibroblast-Populated Collagen Gel
The goal of the project was to modify the surface of a Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) well as well as to assess the
influence of mechanical stimuli on fibroblasts.
Conducted independent research on developing methods to promote collagen gel-PDMS adhesion
Developed and created 3D models for several prototypes and final design to achieve the goal.
Develop modifications to the uniaxial device to be able to withstand 72 hours of continuous stretching at 20 RPM
Submitted an abstract and presented a poster at the Biomedical Engineering Society (BMES) conference in Hartford,
