Have a heavy appreciation and understanding of biological studies, and science in general. Have laboratory experience due to college courses, and have an above average understanding of universal safety procedures, data collection and note-taking, and laboratory equipment usage. Shows a willingness to learn from mistakes, help out with any group projects, and an appreciation and drive to learn more while on the job to improve results and understanding of the work field, especially in terms of biotechnology. Fully capable of listening and complying with both written and verbal instructions without any argument or conflicts, and listening to the advice of both co-workers, trainers, and supervisors. Various fields studied during college are chemistry, physics, genetics, biodiversity, ecology (including physiological ecology), microbiology, biochemistry, hypothesis testing, developmental biology, and laboratory studies throughout the ones that apply. This also includes extra courses such as astronomy and insect diversity. Will admit to being rusty in a few of these, due to lack of use after college; do see myself being able to relearn if given the proper help.

I have worked among small children and adults for over four years, helping to take care of them in numerous ways outlined above. I have enjoyed learning about biology, and science in general, for years up to now. While I am not as good as I used to be, I still hold an appreciation for mathematics, and do enjoy learning new stuff involving it. I enjoying reading up on and learning new things, largely related to anything science-related, and while I haven't had to use them in a while, I do know how to use Word and Power Point just fine due to all the projects and papers I wrote back. I still hold a love and appreciation for everything associated with biological studies, and I don't see that ever changing.
