What I'm looking for

I’m seeking opportunities in laboratory science, healthcare, research, data analysis, or STEM education in Canada—where I can run diagnostic testing, maintain quality standards, and turn results into actionable insights while supporting learners and patients.

I’m a detail-oriented microbiologist with a B.Sc. in Microbiology (Second Class Upper Division), built on hands-on lab diagnostics, biological sample testing, and data analysis. In my final year project, I investigated the phytochemical and antimicrobial efficacy of soursop, and I use Excel to visualize and interpret laboratory data.

In my lab technician role at Strategic Insight Health Care, I conducted routine microbiological and diagnostic tests following SOPs, collected and analyzed biological samples, operated and maintained laboratory equipment, and documented results with quality control in mind. I also bring strong communication and mentorship through STEM Lab (coding & robotics instruction) and leadership from part-time store management—so I can collaborate effectively, solve problems analytically, and deliver actionable reporting.
