Seasoned Laboratory Manager and Science Advocate

Profile Summary

I received an MBA in 2018 to enhance my ability to support our researchers on an administrative level. I received certification in LEAN Six Sigma philosophies and techniques while in my MBA program and believe in daily, continuous improvement. I am also a recognized research lab disaster preparedness expert and am very passionate about protecting research from the severe losses experienced during a disaster. Last year I received a certification in Diversity, Equity & Inclusion as this is another topic I am passionate about and I could see the need for this training in the environment I was working in at the University of Miami.

I am a skilled research lab manager and administrator as well as a servant leader and advocate for science. I have dedicated my career to supporting scientific education and research and I have experience with animal research, molecular biology, histology, imaging, genetic analysis, tissue culture and rodent husbandry. As the laboratory safety manager for every lab I have worked in, I have extensive experience with laboratory safety as well. I have extensive experience working with lab equipment. I have been responsible for the past 15 years for ordering all capital equipment for the Cancer Center where I worked, including getting competitive quotes, identifying pros and cons of each item and providing guidance on which equipment should be purchased, writing sole source justifications, as needed and submitting equipment orders and following them thru until delivery and installation.
