What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can keep products compliant and safe through precise testing and documentation, work with strong quality standards, and grow my lab and quality skills in a supportive, detail-focused team.

I’m a Quality Control Lab Technician at Carolina Beverage Group, where I test liquids to determine physical and chemical characteristics, check color, consistency, fat content, caloric content, and nutrients, and compare results with standard tables. I record and compile test results and prepare graphs, charts, or reports to support quality decisions, while ensuring beverages and drink containers meet established safety standards.

I also strengthen day-to-day operations by cleaning, maintaining, operating, and sanitizing laboratory equipment (like flask and beakers) and determining moisture, sugar, CO2, or preservative content. In addition to lab work, I’ve built dependable experience in inventory control, retail operations, and customer service through roles like Grocery Stocker and Personal Shopper/Sales Associate, where I prioritized accuracy, clear communication, and organized presentation.
