What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative role that combines front-end development and scientific problem-solving, offers growth, mentorship, and opportunities to apply both lab and web technologies.

I am a communicative scientist with hands-on laboratory experience in microbiology and molecular techniques, combined with practical front-end development skills. I leverage technical knowledge in Python, JavaScript, HTML, CSS and database systems to deliver user-focused solutions and well-tested code.

I have collaborated with stakeholders across research and development projects, followed SDLC best practices within Agile teams, and transformed native applications into mobile-friendly products while improving user interaction and design versatility.

I bring a strong foundation in laboratory methods (DNA extraction, PCR, gel electrophoresis, microbial culture) and cloud/Linux familiarity, and I am eager to apply this hybrid skill set to roles that value technical rigor, collaboration and continuous learning.
