COLLEGE ASSISTANT/ BIOLOGY TUTOR
Professional Overview
To obtain an Research Assistant position in Biochemistry Lab where I can utilize my skills in venomics. Toxins represent a treasure trove of bioactive compounds with potential application as tools in medical research to provide an answer to unmet orphan drugs, precision medicine, and antimicrobial resistance.
Summary of Skills
  • Reasearch Assistant with +3 years of experience in the field of venomics towards therapeutic leads.
  •  I am proficient at building and maintaining professional relationships.  
  • Out going and detail oriented
  • Lecturer, educates the hobbyist including other kids of all ages and scientific researchers by sharing their interest in tarantulas, scorpions, and other arachnids.
  • Research in Proteomics of Arachnids 
  • Detail-oriented, perfected spider venom extraction both from tarantula and new world spiders for more than 25 years.
  • Currently involved in the following projects: Sodium Channel-Tarantula Toxin  Interaction Sudies by NMR and Electrophysiology; Determination of the Aphonopelma chalcodes Venomic Peptides Interaction with NavRh, human voltage gated sodium channel homolog;  Structural Studies and Dynamics of Toxin Interactions with Voltage Gated Sodium Channels (Nav 1.7). Purification and Characterization antimicrobial peptides in Spider Venoms.

Thesis/Dissertation
Antibiotics are miracle drugs that have saved millions of lives from microbial infections since they were discovered in the 1940s. However, recent studies have shown that bacteria have become increasingly resistant to antibiotics because of misuse and abuse. Understanding how bacteria cause disease, how antibiotics work, and how bacteria become resistant to these drugs is critical in the fight against infectious diseases. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) isolated from the venom of mygalomorph spiders were less investigated because taxonomists hypothesized that AMPs evolved in araneomorph venoms after their separation from mygalomorphs around 280 million years ago. Spider venom may represent a potentially new source of novel antimicrobial agents that will act as pore formers to increase permeability and to induce lysis of prokaryotic cells leading to depolarization and cellular death. Our studies of natural peptides from the mygalomorph spider Aphonopelma chalcodes allowed us to identify a specific peptide of mass 2920 Da with an antibacterial effect both on S. aureus  and E. coli. Based on electron micrographs of bacterial cells treated with this peptide, we speculate that the mechanism of action could involve the peptide-lipid interactions leading to either direct or indirect disruption and breakdown of the cell membrane, leading to cell death. Innovative research to discover new antibiotics, in addition to careful use of existing antibiotics, will help us maintain the upper hand in the fight against microbial resistance
