PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE: Experienced in mass spectrometric based technologies used in environmental, pharmaceutical and biomedical analyses, including capillary electrophoresis, nanoscale liquid chromatography, and gas chromatography.

RESEARCH CHEMIST: USEPA, NERL, ESB, PO Box 93478, Las Vegas, NV 89193-3478; 10/98 to present

Automated and applied Ion Composition Elucidation (ICE), a high resolution mass spectrometric technique composed of Mass Peak Profiling from Selected-Ion-Recording (MPPSIRD) for data acquisition and a Profile Generation Model (PGM) to determine the unique composition for each ion in a mass spectrum based on the acquired data, to identify dozens of compounds in a drinking water reservoir and in sewage treatment plant effluents.

Developed a methodology to determine elemental compositions of ions using high resolution mass spectrometry without mass calibrants. Samples were infused with electrospray ionization; data was acquired using Mass Peak Profiling from Selected Ion Recording Data (MPPSIRD).

NRC SENIOR RESEARCH ASSOCIATE: USEPA, NERL, ESB, PO Box 93478, Las Vegas, NV 89193-3478; 3/96 to 9/98

Wrote software to perform MPPSIRD with a Finnigan MAT 900-Trap hybrid mass spectrometer using gas or liquid sample introduction with EI, ESI, or APCI. MPPSIRD provides a 100-fold increase in sensitivity and a 6-fold faster cycle time over full scanning at a mass resolution of 20,000.
Determined the elemental compositions of molecular and fragment ions for well pollutants using MPPSIRD leading to their identification.
Used MPPSIRD to provide elemental compositions of molecular and fragment ions from synthetic products and impurities to confirm product identities or to provide guidance for synthesis modification.
Optimized an optical bench configuration for capillary electrophoresis with laser induced fluorescence detection.
Developed a method to identify and quantify Aroclors using MPPSIRD and sampling with a probe or a short, deactivated capillary column.
Packed capillary electrokinetic chromatography (CEC) columns and performed CEC experiments on a Beckman PACE 2000 CE instrument.
Designed and built a pressure-assisted CEC interface for Finnigan ESI and APCI ion sources.

PRINCIPAL SCIENTIST: Lockheed Environmental Systems & Technologies; 1988-February, 1996

As Task Lead, managed, planned, performed and interpreted experiments necessary to develop analytical methods using high resolution mass spectrometry.
Designed experiments and operated a VG70-250SE high resolution mass spectrometer for 7 years.
Identified and quantified target compounds at ultra-trace levels in environmental samples.
Familiar with EPA Methods 1613, 8290 and 8280; electron ionization; negative chemical ionization; fast atom bombardment; liquid secondary ionization mass spectrometry.
Packed, interfaced and evaluated nanoscale (75 m i.d.) liquid chromatography columns. Designed and built a sample introduction probe to support and protect fragile capillaries. Determined exact masses of dyes and herbicides using LC/LSIMS - HRMS.
Wrote and documented an integrated software package for instrument control, data reduction, quality assurance, and report generation by interfacing commercial software with a mass spectrometer data system for EPA Method 8280.
Created, automated and applied a new high resolution mass spectrometric technique, Mass Peak Profiling from Selected-Ion -Recording Data (MPPSIRD), to determine exact masses and elemental compositions for trace components in complex samples.
Created computer models in QuickBasic to provide quantities needed for identifying compounds using the new technique.
Developed a high resolution, GC/MS, congener-specific method for identification and quantification of Aroclors.
Identified molecular or other large ions for 47 chromatographic peaks for a complex environmental sample using MPPSIRD.

RESEARCH ASSISTANT: Oregon Graduate Institute, Beaverton, OR

Designed, built, and characterized an atmospheric pressure ionization (API) source for a VG 7070E high resolution mass spectrometer.
Used the API source to acquire medium resolution APIMS data to identify several photo-oxidation products of toluene.

RESEARCH ASSISTANT: Analytical Chemistry Department, Univ. of Wisconsin, Madison, WI

Redesigned and built all but the vacuum chamber of a triple-cathode plate, photo-ionization chamber to enhance durability and provide flexibility in plate configuration. Derived equations to explain the optimum plate configuration determined experimentally.
Used the instrument to determine photo-absorption cross sections for several gases in the vacuum UV wavelength region using a synchrotron light source.
