Summary

Recent college graduate from the University of California, Santa Cruz with experience in healthcare, education and fundamental biology lab methods. I have skills honed towards detail-oriented tasks such as chemical analysis, tutoring 50+ undergraduate students, and providing assistance to clients in the health field. A long-term goal henceforth is to apply to a competitive graduate program to perform research in a cancer therapy laboratory.
