Summary
Driven by a results-focused approach, I have come up with strategies to improve my time management and research abilities. The skills I have developed at Dominican University of California have enabled me to make discoveries and contribute to the field of studies relating to skull morphology and dental pathology of California sea lions. These relevant studies led myself and my research group to present our findings at several respected conferences. My tenure at In-N-Out Burger and Canal Alliance showcase my attention to detail, excellent communication, and ability to enhance customer experience and community support.
