"I'm Justin Y., a 30 year old male with a passion for life sciences. I have taught university chemistry labs, and presented lectures at the University of Lethbridge during grad school.

I began coaching youth soccer when I was 16, and continued coaching soccer and judo for over a decade. I have mentored many fellow athletes, as well as many underclassmen working in the various laboratories throughout my Master's.

Education:

BSc. Biological Sciences, University of Lethbridge, Lethbridge, AB, Canada

MSc. Biochemistry, University of Lethbridge, Lethbridge, AB, Canada

My Master's thesis focused on the effect of a dietary fiber bacterial fermentation byproduct in the large intestine, on the human immune response to a potentially pathogenic bacterial species. My project was highly multi-disciplinary, focusing on microbiology, metabolism, molecular biology, cellular biology, immunology, biochemistry, and microscopy. Having mass data to track and present, I quickly honed my skills in Microsoft Office that I use daily in my remote job, in clinical research.

I have mentored family, friends, coworkers, and classmates in Microsoft Excel for a variety of applications.

My real life experience applying my education in my job, monitoring patient safety means that I can help explain why the information is important.

I loved my time teaching university chemistry lab, and had a high success rate with my students passing the lab portion of the class because the students had application based tutelage rather than trying to solely memorize facts." less...
