Chemistry graduate candidate currently enrolled in the doctoral program at WVU. I've been working in a research laboratory setting for four years. I have managed/mentored undergraduates that were assigned to my projects. I've worked on TD-GC/MS, GC/MS, HPLC/MS, CE, ToF-SIMS, IR, UV-VIS, fluorescence plate readers, Orbitrap and other instruments. I am also starting molecular dynamic simulations with density functional theory and free energy perturbation.
