Dec 2021 - Present
I use critical thinking skills to screen electronic health records for the recruitment of potential subjects based on eligibility criteria. I prioritize and plan tasks to adequately manage the data gathering, intervention administration, collection of samples, and documentation of two separate ongoing studies. I must therapeutically communicate with subjects and their families to educate them about clinical trials. And as a team we monitor modifications made to study protocols under Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval to ensure the ethical protection and welfare of participating subjects. Ineligibility Tracking Project: I took initiative to track and analyze data entries which informed modifications needed to be made to increase subject enrollment rates when they trended low, keeping the study on track.

Professional Tutor
-
Aug 2018 - Dec 2021
Tutored students aged 9-17 years old after school where I modeled strategies for planning, prioritizing, and setting time limits for homework assignments. I kept time and performance based “high scores” during homework completion to foster self-driven improvement, where developmentally appropriate. I regularly assessed patterns of performance to accurately distinguish between oversight and knowledge deficit and I managed said knowledge deficits through clarification, teach-back, providing practice problems, and verbal encouragement. In this job experience I learned from and taught students with ADHD and on the autism spectrum. They have inspired me to seek more knowledge and training on how to work with neurodivergent children.
