Research Assistant
High Point University
High Point
06.2024 - 08.2024
- I worked as a research assistant on an entomology study.
- During this time, I assisted in setting up and collecting field samples, analyzing data, and presenting findings in an organized informatic poster.
- When our team had time to spare, we also participated in several community outreaches, including a pollinator outreach at a local garden and an insect showcase outreach at a children's museum. Here, I educated and familiarized children with insects and their unique roles in their ecosystems, while simultaneously allowing them an interactive learning experience with a sample case, a microscope station with related slides, and live insects in a small habitat we created for them.
