What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a quality-control or analytical chemistry role in a collaborative company where I can apply laboratory analysis, product development, and quality systems experience, grow into senior QC responsibilities, and contribute to continuous improvement.

I am a quality analyst with a BSc in Industrial Chemistry and hands-on experience in raw material and final product analysis. I specialize in product development, water analysis, and quality management systems.

I’ve worked at Bulva Pure Ventures as a Quality Analyst and interned at PZ Cussons. I performed HPLC, GC, TLC and FTIR analyses, microbiology culturing, in-line inspection, and Acceptable Quality Limit assessments, while contributing to competitor analysis and product development.

I bring strong documentation, presentation, and team-training skills from research volunteering and leadership roles. I’m eager to join a collaborative team where I can advance quality systems, improve product quality, and mentor junior staff.
