What I'm looking for

I seek academic or research roles that blend teaching and hands-on lab work, in a collaborative environment with mentoring and growth opportunities.

I am a biotechnology graduate and experienced microbiologist now working as a guest lecturer in biology and engineering colleges. I apply laboratory techniques such as PCR, tissue culture, spectroscopy and chromatography to both teaching and applied research.

My research on Moringa oleifera's phytochemicals and its in vitro inhibition of calcium stone formation highlights my analytical rigor and curiosity; I seek roles that combine teaching, hands-on lab work and student mentorship.
