Charisse De Leon

- Assists in the development of new formulations and processes by conducting laboratory-scale experiments, assessing compatibility of new raw materials, and ensuring product stability through evaluation

- Provided crucial support on collaborative projects and troubleshooting stability and scale-up challenges within the plant, pilot or manufacturing

- Analyzing stability results to identify trends, anomalies, or areas needing further investigation

- Investigating and troubleshooting stability and scale-up issues by identifying factors contributing to the problem and proposing solutions

- Collaborating with other chemists to adjust formulations based on experimental results and observations, aiming to improve stability or scalability

- Performing scale-down studies to mimic larger-scale manufacturing conditions in the lab

- Accurately documenting experimental procedures, observations, and results in stability, ensuring clear communication and traceability of work performed

- My expertise moved from a varied lab environments to a singular brand focus, allowing for focus onto a single brand's projects and autonomy in taking initiatives under the lead project manager's guidance

- Showed creativity and resourcefulness to come up with solutions to issues that may arise in development and/or in anticipation of pilot, plant, or manufacturing

- Provided technical support to development team, troubleshooting issues and ensuring a seamless transition from lab scale to full-scale manufacturing

- Responsible for documenting and interpreting data in order to support conclusions with minimal supervision

- As a rotating lab technician, my collaboration spanned various labs including the lip lab, indies lab, and fast beauty innovation lab

- Effectively balanced workloads between the distinct labs to facilitate seamless coordination and timely project completion

- Supported chemists in fulfilling sampling requests through batch production, filling, blinding, and labeling

- Utilized extensive expertise in color theory to achieve precise shade matching in lip and complexion products, such as lipstick, lip gloss, blush, concealer, and foundation

- Utilized both behavioral and morphological characteristics to accurately identify potential foodborne pathogens

-Performed diverse microbiological techniques including plate counts, colony transfers, swirl inoculations, and broth transfers to culture and isolate microorganisms

- Conducted follow-up tests including gram staining, catalase testing, and latex tests to confirm the identity of isolated organisms

- Proficient at microscope operation and evaluation

- demostrated competance in Biosafety Level 2 lab, adhering to strict safety protocols and procedures

- Specialized in pediatric care to children from newborns to 21 years old, including those with disabilities

- Thoroughly documented patient medical history, vitals, and examination findings
