Effectively collaborate with the client's "internal customers" who use the equipment. • Reorganizing a busy laboratory to increase efficiency. Creating digital inventory to decrease time spent searching for equipment.
• Utilized laboratory automation technologies to research and develop novel excipients. • Specializing in developing speciality excipient knowledge base for client. Independently advancing project which involves screening solubility and utilizing aseptic cell culture techniques. • Created project specific numeric reagent sorting system to easily retrieve and input experimental data in for > 300 different chemical species. Was highly praised by the client’s VP. • Effectively collaborated with colleagues within the client’s formulation development department and in other departments such as the client's biopharmaceutics automation research department. Was highly praised by cross functional partners to the supervisor. • Demonstrated excellent cellent communication skills such that I was tasked with training two co-level colleagues and recently assisted in training a third. • Supported formulation development by independently executing experiments, creating bench scale powder blends, preparing solutions and suspensions, spray drying, hand filling capsules, assessing tablet friability, procuring equipment and chemicals, operating and troubleshooting equipment, and collating and interpreting data. • Recieved Collaboration Badge Dec of 2023, Efficiency Badge Mar of 2024, and Deliver with Heart and Determinatiom Badge Jun of 2024. Received highest performance review out of group of ~30 for third quarter of 2025.
• Measured, mixed, and bottled experimental formulation batches. Created a pre-printed color-coded labeling system such that there was absolute clarity as to which samples corresponded to which stability conditions and analysis time points. • Took a leading role in opening a new laboratory. Setup and dismantled laboratory equipment and furniture; fully organized all glassware, consumables, reagents, etc.; coordinated and facilitated external inspections and repairs of laboratory equipment. • Created and maintained a digital database to file reagent and sample documentation (SDS, CoAs, etc.). Set up and maintained various digital spreadsheets and paper logbooks to ensure reagent acountability and track departmental expenditure. • Facilitated experiments by calibrating/operating equipment (density meter, analytical balance, pH meter, etc.), accurate weighing and volumetric measuring, monitoring stability chamber, and cleaning glassware per GLP. • Wrote and edited various SOPs: such as operating the density meter and regular safety inspections. • Took point on pharmaceutical packaging materials procurement and initial R&D evaluations project
