What I'm looking for

I'm looking for an opportunity where I can apply my biological sciences background, laboratory research experience, communication skills, and administrative strengths while continuing to learn and contribute to a collaborative team.

I've supported bacteriology research at the Noguchi Memorial Institute for Medical Research, where I prepared food samples, cultured and identified microbes using MALDI-TOF, performed PCR, and conducted antimicrobial susceptibility testing.

At Enterprise Life Assurance, I identified prospective customers through cold calling, referrals, networking, and lead databases. I assessed customer needs, supported applications, renewals, and claims, and processed reports and administrative paperwork.

With a BSc in Biological Sciences, I bring clear communication, record keeping, data entry, teamwork, and a strong commitment to safety and accountability.
