Contributed to research on craniofacial development in murine models, examining the roles of Fgf8, Fgf17, and Nosip in craniofacial abnormalities, utilizing advanced imaging and genetic techniques, such as light-sheet microscopy and µCT scanning, to explore these mechanisms. Conducted a comprehensive literature review to assess current findings on craniofacial developmental genes, and worked on expanding the lab's image analysis pipeline by incorporating 3D image captures, and utilizing comparative geometric morphometrics to quantify mutated phenotypes.

Responsibilities include facilitating library operations via assisting patrons with collections access, library resource use, and use of research materials, managing data for collection transfers, and supporting the planning and execution of library events.

Responsible for the organization of 4x weekly classes across three fencing disciplines- increasing membership and attendance from 4 to 60+ fencers since 2021. Alongside the UCFC, I plan and organize the Don Laszlo Memorial Cup, a provincially recognized tournament grossing ~$ 15 000 with over 300 competitors.

Applied bioinformatics tools in R to investigate the impact of reciprocal translocation eT1 in C. elegans, and utilized differential gene expression and splice site analysis to identify novel structural variants. Further analysis on their impact on gene expression was subsequently conducted.

Screened data and developed scripts in R to analyze differential gene expression from trisomy 13 blastocyst data, applying gene set enrichment and gene ontology techniques. I utilized statistical methods to visualize and evaluate the overlap between trisomy 13 and HPE-associated genes and pathways.

I worked in a team of 12 to design and develop a simulated self-checkout machine using Java, focusing on user interface design and system functionality. I contributed to the creation of a fully functional and integrated GUI and conducted functionality testing. I designed back-end algorithms for item scanning and mock weight testing.
