ObjectivesI have recently graduated from RMIT having completed a BSc majoring in Biotechnology

and am currently in a temporary/Contract role as a zonal technician at BioCSL (Parkville). During my studies I have developed an interest in Microbiology, industrial microbiology, Immunology, vaccine/drug production and also the environmental aspects of Biotechnology (bioremediation and waste management).

During my studies I was fortunate to work with Associate Professor Mark Osborn (RMIT) and have just recently completed a preliminary study to determine if there was a presence of microplastic pollution in the marine food web of the seal colony of Seal Rocks Phillip Island (Vic). This study was headed by Associate Professor Mark Osborn (RMIT) with the assistance of Dr Peter Dann and Dr Rebecca McIntosh (Phillip Island Nature Parks).

In short, I am seeking a position to develop my operational and leadership skills and further advance my understanding of the analytical, field work and research and development processes of the field of Biotechnology.
