Work strengthened practical judgment for inspection, documentation, and quarantine oriented decisions. Recorded plant health observations using reference keys and standardized field inspection forms. Maintained chain of custody logs for more than 180 plant and insect specimens. Compared suspected pests with scientific references and referred uncertain identifications for staff review. Prepared technical notes that clarified laboratory findings for faculty research meetings. Checked sample counts, ratios, and treatment calculations against source records before dataset entry. Followed sanitation and containment procedures while moving materials between designated laboratory areas. Biosecurity Inspection Capstone Student Capstone Project September 2025 - December 2025 Davis, CA Completed a supervised inspection simulation focused on invasive plant pest prevention across agricultural receiving workflows. Built practical skill with quarantine concepts, inspection documentation, spreadsheet analysis, technical guidance, and clear presentation of disposition recommendations. Created inspection checklists linking risk indicators with quarantine escalation and referral procedures. Evaluated 36 simulated shipments and documented consistent findings for faculty review. Used spreadsheets to calculate frequencies and ratios across varied plant material shipments. Interpreted technical guidance to resolve unfamiliar pest scenarios through systematic reasoning. Presented disposition recommendations to a 14 person class during final workflow review. Explained documentation quality and inspection consistency in response to faculty questions. Plant Pest Identification Lab Student Student Lab January 2025 - May 2025 Davis, CA Completed supervised laboratory exercises in insect morphology, plant symptoms, specimen handling, and introductory pest identification. Practiced technical reading, prescribed documentation, quantitative reasoning, safe laboratory work, and evidence based follow up for inspection scenarios. Identified introductory pest characteristics using microscopes, reference keys, and prepared specimens. Revised laboratory reports after instructor review for clearer scientific terminology and complete findings. Practiced inspection scenarios requiring technical reading, evidence comparison, and follow up selection. Recorded specimen photographs, labels, source notes, and identification rationale in a shared catalog. Completed measurements, fractions, percentages, and ratios for biological and pest management exercises. Followed specimen handling, sanitation, and workspace safety procedures during laboratory activities. PROJECTS Invasive Pest Inspection Simulation 2025 Created a supervised agricultural receiving workflow that connected shipment review, plant material inspection, quarantine concepts, specimen referral, documentation, and disposition recommendations. Results supported a clear classroom demonstration of logical inspection practice.
