I am an experienced Microbiologist equipped with technical and analytical skills to be able to work and adapt in any microbiological lab, whether clinical or food/water lab.
I have previously worked as a Lab Analyst 1 for four years in the Microbiological section of SGS Philippines Inc., and in that duration, I have developed and put into practice my skills and technical abilities that I have theoretically learned during my undergraduate program. As a Lab analyst 1, it was my routine
to conduct food and non-food analyses in accordance to published methods such as FDA BAM, ISO, SMEWW, AOAC, and USP. All these analyses were done with integrity and achieved in a timely manner to meet the turn-around-time (TAT) requirements. I have also been tasked to conduct special analyses that further challenge my critical thinking and analytical skills in microbiology, as well as in problem-solving. These special analyses include Kill-rate test, Preservative Efficacy Test (PET), and other analyses whose methods are supplied by the clients
