  Park Supervisor

  While employed at the city of Port Jervis my primary responsibility was to supervise the Rotary Park ensuring safety of people. I administratively documented attendance in the park as well as reports in cases of any incidences. I planned , coordinated, and hosted community events at the park and maintained positive community relations. On several occasions, I represented my city at county meetings regarding the conditions of parks, effectively communicating the perspective of city residents as well as my recommendations for improvement. As the supervisor, I actively mentored the youth of my community communicating support and ensuring a positive environment. Show less

  Research Assistant

  The research project I am currently contributing to focuses on understanding the relationship between neuropeptide receptors and cell fate in the male C. elegans. The target neuropeptide receptors are also GFP reporters. These reporter lines of C. elegans will be crossed with other gene knockout lines that target terminal selector transcription factor genes. The aim is to observe which neuropeptide GFP reporters will be impacted by knocking out each terminal selector transcription factor. Then it will be possible to determine which genes compose the gene battery of each cell type determined by the terminal selector transcription factor. Finally, It is the aim to compare this data from the male C. elegans to that of the hermaphrodite C. elegans in order to further understand sexually dimorphic characteristics of C. elegans. Show less
