Teaching Assistantship

 Stockroom Employee: Prepped supplies for general, analytical, and organic chemistry laboratory sections. Organization and material upkeep for all supplies.  General Chemistry Teaching Assistant (3 sections/semester): Pre-lab lectures followed by laboratory activities (~24 students). Regular office hours were held for Q/A’s regarding homework assignments, lab reports, exam preparation, and future lab work. SKILLS  Expert in the assembly, alignment, and use of custom wide-field and confocal microscopy setups including free-space beam alignment, fiber coupling, total internal reflection fluorescence (TIRF), fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS), ALEX, resonant scanning based systems, and super-resolution techniques  Expert user of nanofabrication techniques including: E-beam lithography (EBL), focused ion beam (FIB), photolithography, dual chamber E-beam evaporation, sputter deposition, reactive ion etcher (RIE), atomic layer deposition (ALD), optical profilometry, and scanning electron microscopes (SEM)  Thorough knowledge of substrate construction and sample preparation methods including polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) based microfluidic systems, various linker chemistries for fluorescent labeling of substrates, as well as, molecular adsorption onto surfaces using polyvinyl alcohol films  Strong technical background with acquisition/analysis softwares including: Micro- Manager (NIH), ImageJ (NIH) , OriginPro, Symphotime64 (Picoquant), Metamorph (Olympus), IQ (Andor), Solis (Andor), and the Microsoft Office Suite PUBLICATIONS 1.
