Summary

As a Biochemistry and Molecular Biology major at the University of Toronto, I have developed strong technical and analytical skills through rigorous coursework and hands-on laboratory training. I excel in essential techniques such as aseptic cell culture, spectrophotometry, gel electrophoresis, and microscopy, always adhering to safety protocols. To thrive in my intensive program, I created efficient Excel tracking systems for data analysis and lab management. With a solid academic foundation and expertise in molecular biology techniques, I am well-prepared to make impactful contributions in research labs.
