Waksman Student Scholars Program (WSSP), Jan-March 2021

Provider: Rutgers University 

  • Isolated, sequenced, and analysed the expressed genes in the mRNA of Landoltia punctata.

  • Learned about Polymerase Chain Reaction techniques and other sequencing techniques.

  • Gained experience using modern-day protein analysis tools found on National Center for Biotechnology Information  (NCBI).

  • Worked with Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST), CDTRee, Vector Alignment Search Tool (VAST), and Single-Nucleotide Polymorphisms.

  • Modeled protein structures, found protein function, and determined evolutionary relationships compared to homologous variants found in other organisms.

  • Published two sequences (along with analysis) found here: W369.20 & W374.20

Provider: National Outdoor Leadership School

  • Gained hands-on simulated experience providing treatment for injured individuals.

  • Learned the Patient Assessment System, including:

    • ABCDE: Airway, Breathing, Circulation, Disability, Environment/Exposed wound​

    • MOI: Method of Injury

    • CSM: Circulation, Sensation, Motion

    • SAMPLE: Symptoms, Allergies, Medications, Pertinent History, Last Intake/Output, Events

    • SCTM: Skin Color, Temperature, Moisture

    • LOR: Level of Responsiveness

    • Writing a SOAP Note: Subjective, Objective, Assessment, Plan

​Certified in:
  • First Response

  • Adult/Child/Infant CPR, AED & Airway Management

  • Epinephrine Auto-Injection

Austin Area Homeschool Science Team, Science Olympiad, 2018-2021

  • Communicated weekly with Science Olympiad Coaches and event partners.

  • Participated in the Invitational, Regional and State Competitions.

  • Specialized in events:  Density Lab, Optics, and Thermodynamics

    • Built a calorimeter using Styrofoam, aerogel, and reflective sheeting and tested accuracy.
