Technical Expertise
I build the connective layer between robotics, instruments, facilities, data systems, and lab operations so teams can run cleaner workflows with stronger uptime, traceability, and operator handoff.
Designing, validating, and improving robotic laboratory systems that reduce manual handling, increase throughput, and support repeatable production workflows.
Supporting sequencing workflows, library preparation processes, sample tracking, and automation-ready protocol development.
Supporting clinical laboratory automation environments, including Abbott experience, sample movement, instrument connectivity, and operational traceability.
Structuring automated workflows, instrument data, and operational handoffs so labs can support analytics, exception handling, decision support, and future process improvement.
Experience with Abbott GLP Systems in clinical laboratory environments, including sample routing, analyzer connectivity, and the operational discipline required in diagnostic settings.
Working knowledge of 3-phase electrical infrastructure for laboratory automation equipment, including power requirements, installation coordination, and facilities readiness.
Developing and optimizing automated extraction protocols across sample types, instruments, and operational constraints.
Applying ddPCR for absolute quantification, rare target detection, copy number analysis, and precision molecular testing.
Supporting qPCR methods for gene expression, pathogen detection, assay troubleshooting, and molecular diagnostics analysis.
