SKILLS & ABILITIES I may not have usual or common job experience but I am a fast learner and a hard worker. I know how to use Excel, Word, and PowerPoint. The majority of my experience has been in a genetic research lab. In that regard, I am comfortable with and proficient in genetics research techniques including gene amplification, primer design, DNA purification, electrophoresis gels, and cloning as well as using sequence analysis software and a phylogenetic analysis program. I am a very fast learner as well as good at dealing and working with other people. In the past I have been accountable for getting specific challenging tasks done and keeping a spotless, neat, organized lab as well as detailed and color coded notes on par with professional research institution criteria. I was also responsible for keeping, updating, and synthesizing past research and my research. I was in charge of getting my work done when left to my own devices and have developed excellent time management skills I am also excellent at organization. Working this way has made me detail oriented and increased my diligence. I go out of my way to help coworkers and others I come across and treat them with the utmost respect. I am considered a thoughtful and helpful individual amongst my peers and superiors. I can synthesize information into reports, PowerPoint presentations, and other modes of communication. I have given lectures and held meetings about my and others’ work (primarily from scientific literature papers).

I routinely worked amplifying gene segments, purifying DNA, cloning, running electrophoresis gels, using gene analysis software, and a phylogenetic analysis program, in addition to meticulous note taking and record keeping.
