Work History

Experimental Biochemistry

School lab
Newark, NJ
09.2024 - 12.2024
  • Obtained hands-on biochemistry experience using a range of laboratory methods. Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) was used to assess organic acids in wine, the DPPH assay was used to measure antioxidant activity in fruits, and the effects of pH and temperature on enzyme activity were examined. Additionally, I worked on the partial purification and extraction of yeast invertase, honing my analytical, problem-solving, and lab techniques.

Molecular Bio Tech

School Lab
Newark, NJ
01.2024 - 05.2024
  • I obtained practical expertise with several important molecular procedures in the Molecular Biotechnology lab, such as reverse transcription, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and RNA and plasmid isolation. In addition, I worked with bacteria and carried out TOPO TA cloning, which improved my knowledge of cloning techniques, amplification, and genetic modification.
  • Completed and maintained time and attendance forms and inventory lists.

Organic Chem Lab

School Lab
Newark, NJ
09.2023 - 12.2023
  • Utilized organic chemistry methods such as Dials-Alder reaction and Suzuki coupling in laboratory research.
  • Drafted thorough analysis of lab experimental results.
  • Displayed emotional resilience when handling tense scenarios.
