Biological Sciences
I received a Bachelor of Arts degree from Reed College in 1993. My major was biology. I spent the next five years as a lab technician researching peroxisome biogenesis in the yeast Pichia pastoris at The Oregon Graduate Institute of Science and Technology. I was involved in writing the Methods and Materials sections for several articles, editing scientific documents, and helping design figures for publications. Please contact me if you need documentation for scientific software.
