Summary
Focus, committed and highly motivated scientist with many years of experience in research and scientific perspective. I have developed and managed the Lab facilities. Through my experience, I have trained and lead many undergraduate students who have done internship or carry out experiences in our Lab research facilities, which have led to their undergraduate final research and grade obtention. Hability to manage facilities such as the Raman, Fourrier Transform-Infra Red Spectroscopy (FT-IR Spectroscopy), X-ray diffractometer (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) (basic knowledge), Physical Property Measurement System (PPMS) (Quantum Design), Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) (contact and tapping mode). Proficient in Microsoft office (Excel, Origin, PowerPoint, Word), MATLAB, C++, Latex, FORTRAN. I write and speak fluently for languages: Haitian Creole, French, Spanish and English. I believe in teamwork and can function as either a leader or a team member. I like to maintain respectful and ethical work environment. I work very well under pressure, good at listening, learning and providing my knowledge.
