What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters collaboration, encourages innovation, and offers opportunities for professional growth in the field of microbiology.

I am a dedicated Biomedical Scientist with a strong background in microbiology and research. My experience as a Research Assistant at the Kenya Medical Research Institute has equipped me with the skills to perform in-vitro experiments, optimize probiotics, and generate data models for predictive analysis. I take pride in my ability to document findings meticulously and contribute to reports that outline significant results, all while adhering to laboratory safety protocols.

In addition to my research experience, I have honed my technical writing skills at GI Technology Company, where I provide efficient writing and publishing services to research clients. My role involves editing analytical reports and organizing research materials, ensuring that the content is engaging and error-free. I am also pursuing a Master of Science in Medical Microbiology, which I expect to complete in November 2024, further enhancing my expertise in the field.
