Intern with the Paytan Biogeochemistry Lab
Goals for Summer 2020
My goals for the summer are to finish writing my paper on marine productivity, help Michael conclude his research on isotopic analysis of biogenic dolomite and to find a full time job.
I hope to learn working in a clean lab and to perform ICP and various other forms of spectroscopies. I am hoping through this internship I will be able to learn more about various chemical techniques and analysis. I am committed to working full time which means I can spend more time during the day developing those skills.
I have been working 20 hours a week for Dr. Paytan during the school year so transition into working 40 hours week without school should not be too hard. I started the internship a few days ago and have already adjusted to working full time. I intend to continue my work with this mindset. The internship is providing me with both economic and academic opportunities, which I am very grateful for. I hope with the internship opportunity and my work ethic I will be able to achieve all three of the above mentioned goals for this summer.
