What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values collaboration, innovation, and professional growth.

I am an experienced lab manager with a proven track record in laboratory operations and team leadership. Since October 2022, I have been working at Advanced Testing Laboratories, where I quickly advanced from Physical Test Technician to Lab Manager. My responsibilities include instrument calibration, data entry, and ensuring laboratory safety. I take pride in fostering a welcoming environment for my coworkers, helping them achieve their personal bests, and frequently meeting client deadlines.

Prior to my current role, I gained diverse experience in various positions, including veterinary receptionist and kennel technician, where I honed my organizational and customer service skills. My background also includes working in a bakery and retail environments, where I developed strong teamwork and communication abilities. I am committed to continuous improvement and professional development, always seeking to enhance my skills and contribute positively to my team.
