I am a technical support representative for [http://www.scbt.com/ Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc]. My primary focus is building relationships with industry and academic institutions for anyone from graduate students to post-doctoral researchers alike, who are running new experiments for the first time or trying out new antibodies.  
Bench research generates advancements in knowledge & health. Reagent quality & protocol awareness are essential for success in molecular & cell biology. Communication on reagent quality & procedure optimization facilitates successful R&D efforts.


Experienced technicians in all aspects of research become so skilled at bench techniques that the nuances of the procedures become second nature, and often times these nuances influence the quality and consistency of obtaining good data
Experiments (ie immuno (western) blotting) contain many important stages & considerations. Below are a valuable collection of resources, that will improve awareness & success.


I seek to create new ways for bench scientists to optimize their protocols so that results are more purposeful toward producing publication quality data. Researcher time and labor at the bench is very important to consider when running experiments over time. I am joining OWW in order to contribute research antibody (immunoglobulin) and siRNA/shRNA related protocols in order to facilitate the research experience. When I am not at pondering the nuances of protocol optimization (check useful links below, ie [http://openwetware.org/wiki/Griffin:Western_Blot_Optimization Western Blot Optimization]), I enjoy surfing, mt. biking, camping, and pen&ink artwork.
