What is your current position and what do you find exciting about it?

I am currently a Senior Clinical Research Coordinator at a de-centralized clinical enrollment site. I find it exciting because we are able to enroll large amounts of participants due to the virtual consent process. 

How did your GVSU Chemistry/Biochemistry degree help you prepare for your position?

A biochemistry degree is very helpful to understand the verbiage of a research protocol. The science behind what researchers are assessing is crucial when describing the process to potential participants.
