  USDA

  Jun 2018 - Aug 2018

  Intern

  At USDA, my research was on the behavior of the Rearing of Navel Orange Worms. By taking photos of the eggs, I performed data collection using a data counting program and managed multiple colonies of navel orange worms in controlled environments. I learned that pest control was important in food safety. I wrote a report and presented my research and the behaviors of navel orange worms in different lighting conditions.
