 My name is Jim Crawford and my background actually started in the textile industry here in North Carolina. I worked there 13 years in quality control, process improvement, and team facilitation. So the plant that I worked at is gone. So at this point I had to kind of do a reassessment of what I wanted to do and I remember sitting on my front porch with my wife and saying, you know, I had my degree in biology. I wandered off to other jobs because they paid well, but my passion was biology so I decided to go back to school and at this time for ScytheTech was offering its biotechnology program. So I went into that degree program and towards the end of it after my second year I got an internship with Wake Forest Regenerative Medicine and I was approached by a biotech startup company. So I joined a company that is called Carenetics. I joined them as their first hire. As a matter of fact, I think in part because of the wide skills and knowledge that I developed both from the industry before as well as at my Associates of Applied Science degree. My typical day, when I start out, I usually have a plan, but I have to be prepared to be very flexible in it. For instance, when I came in this morning we had some bad weather. I got in about an hour late, so I was a little behind. I have to be writing, have to develop a form for receiving samples from an outside manufacturer that's producing a gel made from the proteins that we make in the lab. So I am working at the computer with Excel and kind of developing a spreadsheet so that I can mark down the important things that have to be recorded on that form and signatures and sign-offs, weights, volumes, who gave it to me and how much and where it's going to be stored at at what temperature. So that was my first part of the morning. Then we realized that we have to send some samples out to a company where thinking of purchasing a machine that measures viscosity and we have to send them some of our samples. So we had to mix up samples of three different types of viscosities, solutions and two different types of proteins. So we have six vials that we had to prepare. So much of my afternoon has been over there doing the calculations, weighing out the different protein powders we have in order to get the mixtures that we want, adding the specific amount of water to that so that we have a solution or a gel that is in the right consistency and we'll pack that up and we'll ship that out. Tomorrow will be totally different.
