I have 6 years working in a quality-controlled laboratory environment. I have been working at Pepsi Beverages Company as a QC process tech. I operate the day-to-day microbiological plating and analysis. I test raw ingredients and access the RO and LTS water systems. I spent my first 4 years batching tea and regulating the tea line for product specifications. I am currently in my last semester at Ivy Tech community College to obtain my associate degree in Applied Science in Biotechnology.

I am trained and qualified to test and plate samples for water testing, HFCS, sucrose, carbon towers, polishers and UV lights. I can facilitate tea line and can line conducting product analysis to ensure product meets federal requirements. I can batch tea using heat exchangers, pasteurizers and equipment to make product for consumers. I can perform control drinks for testing and HPLC for products to test for levels of caffeine, aspartame and benzoates. I can also do water checks for RO and LTS systems. I internally clean product fillers for weekly CIP and sanitation using cold and hot 3-step CIPs.
