Accomplishments
- While working at AbbVie under Steven Cassar I established the first Rotifer culture as a part of the animal enrichment program. I maintained and expanded the rotifer culture, resulting in a healthier Zebra fish population for experimentation and breeding.
- I excel at research, while as a student at Loyola, I have done many research projects and have recieved commendations from my professors. The most engaging research project I participated in was a research essay on the Christianization of the Kievan Rus under Dr. Khodarkovsky. For this project I spent tens of hours researching and writing, ultimately earning the highest marks.
