Lab Website + Twitter

I previously helped manage both Dr. Kiarie’s official lab's X account (formerly Twitter) and website. I created, curated, and updated content such as lab and department updates, and industry news and events. My goal was to increase the visibility of the lab and engage with our followers on social media.
