• Aug 2017 - Dec 2020

As a Professional Community-Based Research Assistant, I helped execute a 4-year randomized controlled clinical trial funded by the American Cancer Society in collaboration with 4 local and national universities. This groundbreaking study investigated the impacts of urban community gardening on risk factors for chronic disease. • Collected, organized, and analyzed qualitative and quantitative data, including anthropometrics, surveys, interviews, process evaluations, and site audits. • Conducted 180 one-on-one health visit interviews with study participants, each lasting 2-3 hours, to measure intervention efficacy and assess nutrition, physical activity, and mental health metrics. • Administered the Perceived Stress Scale 10 (PSS-10) and the General Anxiety Disorder 7 (GAD-7) scale to measure participants' well-being. • Implemented a rigorous participant recruitment and enrollment process, ensuring adherence to study consenting guidelines and stringent IRB, Human Subject Research Protection, grant, HIPPA, and government protocols. • Engaged diverse and marginalized populations while maintaining sensitivity, respect, and human connection. • Upheld ethical guidelines, ensuring data quality and maintaining blinding to participants' study groups (control vs. intervention) to preserve study integrity. • Demonstrated active listening techniques and unbiased survey administration. • Managed complex schedules and executed study retention strategies, leading to a robust participant cohort of 300 individuals. • Cultivated strong liaisons with local community-based organizations, contributing to the strategic design of the study. • Orchestrated post-hoc communication efforts, maintaining rapport with participants throughout the study term. • Drafted scientific manuscripts for publication, contributing to the dissemination of key research findings. • Leveraged technology proficiency in RedCAP, Qualtrics, and Dropbox, streamlining data management and enhancing study efficiency.
