Shawn Marschick

I graduated MSU in 2016 with a degree in Biomedical Laboratory Science.  I went to St John Detroit for the match program where I graduated, passing the MLS exam in 2017.  I worked in their Molecular Pathology lab for about 18 months before accepting a Technical Applications position out in the northern Chicago area.  This was for a medical device manufacturer that makes the testing equipment used for PCR testing in microbiology labs.  In less than a year I accepted a Field Application Specialist position for a similar company where I oversee our business in MIchigan, allowing me to move back to my home state.  This was my eventual goal with taking the Chicago position, I was just very fortunate for it to happen much quicker than expected.
