What I'm looking for

I’m seeking an entry-level clinical, research, or healthcare support role where I can apply patient care skills, specimen/lab testing, and infection-control practices to help teams deliver accurate results.

I’m a Biology graduate with hands-on clinical, laboratory, and pharmacy experience, focused on delivering reliable patient care and accurate testing. I’m skilled in specimen processing and lab techniques including PCR, ELISA, and gel electrophoresis, and I support quality environments through infection control and HIPAA-aligned confidentiality.

In my current role as a Pharmacy Technician, I help patients access specialty medications by resolving insurance barriers and grant funding issues, while educating patients on medication usage and adherence. I’ve also worked as a Clinical Intern supporting EKG, glucose, hemoglobin, A1C, and urinalysis testing, and as a Student Researcher running chemical testing, microbial analysis, and microscopy—building strong documentation habits and research communication with faculty and peers.
