Analytical chemist with 10 years of experience in writing and editing scientific articles, book chapters, and proposals

Profile Summary

I am an analytical chemistry researcher currently researching methods of extracting specific organic molecules from complex solutions- specifically, nuclear waste. I have previous experience conducting similar research in human biological fluid, environmental samples (e.g. soil, waters, rock), and various food materials. My laboratory expertise lie in, primarily, mass spectrometry, chromatographies (e.g. gas, liquid, ion), and spectroscopy, as well as overall experimental design and data analysis. For the last decade, my career has been dedicated to authoring scientific articles, proposals, white papers, and patents. I have developed considerable expertise in the fields of scientific writing and editing, as well as journal selection, English-language editing, and proofreading.
