LC/MS Chemist within the Quadrupole MSD R&D hardware group focused primarily on all aspects of quadrupole LC/MS related to fundamental research, product development, and applications testing. Work was carried out on the whole LC/TQ portfolio, but made significant research contributions to the designs of the Ultivo LC/TQ and MSD iQ LC/SQ.
University of the Pacific Mass Spectrometry Core Facility
Part of the day-to-day operation of the University of the Pacific’s mass spectrometry core facility, providing mass spectrometry analysis for any research groups within the university. Provided a broad array of analysis in GC/MS, LC/MS, MALDI-MS, and DART-MS for compound identification or quantitation.
University of the Pacific Undergraduate Teaching Laboratories
Managed and instructed chemistry lab sessions during the Fall, Spring, and Summer terms for General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Analytical Chemistry, and Instrumental Analysis. Teaching appointments were highly preferential for the Analytical Chemistry and Instrumental Analysis courses. Covering topics such as traditional analytical techniques, analysis workflows, and instrument fundamentals.
Carried out Mass spectrometry centered basic research involving the characterization of model peptides containing Lysine & Lysine-like amino acids. Research methodologies involved peptide synthesis, quantum chemical modeling, mass spectrometry instrumentation, and ion spectroscopy.
Operated and prepared all instrumentation to instruct students participating in the “Mass Spec Principles and Practice” professional development course. This included learning specifications for each instrument, method development & optimization, data analysis, and regular maintenance.
