        I met Aarathi when she joined my Quality Control Microbiology team as a graduate student intern. Her project developing and qualifying a microbiological assay to evaluate water bioburden was successful, and we extended her an offer to join the team full-time to support the clinical manufacturing activities. Her responsibilities include but are not limited to, environmental/utilities/personnel monitoring, water bioburden, and conductivity testing, media growth promotion, microbial isolation, stock culture generation, microbial Gram stain and enumeration, and product bioburden testing. She worked on multiple projects as well and prioritized between tasks efficiently. In addition, she supported the QC Sample Management program accessioning and dispositioning of samples for product lot release. 

Aarathi has grown in her role as a QC associate and microbiologist, learning new skills and working collaboratively across functions. It has been a pleasure to mentor her and see her succeed.
