What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to leverage my analytical skills in a collaborative environment, with opportunities for professional growth and development.

I am a passionate and driven chemist with extensive experience in laboratory analysis and research. Currently, I work at New England Testing Laboratory, where I analyze soil samples to determine their composition, ensuring accuracy and maintaining detailed records of all tests performed. My background includes a solid foundation in chemistry, honed through my previous role at Alpha Analytical, where I also focused on soil analysis and data accuracy.

In addition to my technical skills, I have a diverse professional background that includes roles in health and safety advisory, customer service, and volunteer work. My experience as a Health/Security Advisor at Exeter Job Corps Academy allowed me to develop strong supervisory and management skills, ensuring the safety and well-being of students. I am committed to continuous learning and improvement, as evidenced by my involvement in various volunteer opportunities and internships throughout my academic career.
