●Helps patients care for themselves by teaching use of cane or walker, utensils to eat, special techniques and equipment for personal hygiene.

●Monitors patient condition by observing and documenting all physical and mental conditions daily.

●Helps family to care for patients by teaching appropriate ways to lift, turn and reposition the patient while also advising family members on nutritional diet plans, along with health maintenance, exercise routines and hygiene.

●Maintains a safe, secure, and healthy patient environment by following standards and procedures, using precautions.

●Managed office inventory by restocking supplies and placing purchase orders to maintain adequate

●Assisted manager in updating physical records and digital files to maintain current, accurate and compliant documentation.

Academic Projects

●The cloning of Drosophila melanogaster (fruit fly)- Four month span of the continuous cloning of fruit flies for genetic research that maps out specific mutated genes being passed down from generation to generation starting with the P1 generation.

●A Bioinformatics research approach using proteins (Senior project)- Involved working with sponsor Dr. Elliott Abrams for one year focusing on the fertilization in fish, specifically Danio rerio (zebrafish). The bioinformatics approach is used, and this combines biology, computer science, mathematics and statistics in order to analyze and interpret biological data. This is a field of study that helps understand biological data. Using NCBI BLAST, and Praline specific species of fish are aligned to proteins such as bmb, bncr, ndc1, and gp210. The said alignments are then mapped in an order of similarity. The proteins can then be linked to the structure and function of both nuclear envelope fusion, and plasma membrane fusion, using specific domains that map out amino acid formation.

●Phylogenetic Trees- created multiple phylogenetic trees using specific proteins seen in over 75 of species of fish similarly containing the same genetic material, which showed in their mapped-out protein sequence.

●Protein Homologs- mapped out from the software tool Praline; amino acid conservation is seen in protein sequences containing the protein brambleberry (bmb). Heat map is also added showing ranges from unconserved regions to highly conserved regions of the protein sequences.

●Scaled Conservation maps- Heat maps created in Microsoft PowerPoint that shows the comparison of Amino acid (AA) protein sequences of bmb, bmb_related, bncr, gp210, and ndc1. These are plasma membrane and nuclear envelope proteins involved in the process of fertilization in the early embryonic stages of zebrafish. Each specific protein is scaled and separated according to their conservation levels; which are averaged in each separated region. These regions are also color coded. The areas that are highly conserved are red, and the non-conserved areas are in blue. All other colors on the map indicate a slight conservation with a scale from 1-10.

●Growth of an broad spectrum of bacteria on agarose plates- cultures were prepped in order to test their cell wall strengths using the gram staining technique. The cultures were made by transferring some or all of the cells from a previous culture to new growth medium (agarose plates), after the transfer of the bacteria the medium is then placed upside down into incubated areas with controlled temperatures in order for the bacteria to thrive and grow.
