I am currently on track to graduate in 4 years in May of 2020 with a major in Biomedical Sciences and a minor in Business. Arizona State University has one of the top biological science programs and is rated #21 in the world by Quacquarelli Symonds.

Work Experience – I have almost 4 years of total sales experience while attending school by working in restaurants and retail. I have constantly taken responsibility and initiative to achieve results in the workplace, demonstrated teamwork skills, time management, and good work ethic.

Becoming familiar with biology and chemistry lab techniques as well as OfflineSorter Software has enriched my expertise in the field of science.
