Kyla Powell

Since graduating from Spelman College in 2018, I have gained my experience working as Laboratory Technologist for Qualtex Laboratories. I started working there through a temporary agency and was hired full time once my contract was up. Once I began my career as a permanent employee, I was quickly promoted to Lead Lab Technician within the next three months. During this role I lead a team of 6 technicians in performing their day to day tasks. Five months after that, I was then promoted again to a Lab Technologist where I worked until my journey with Qualtex ended due to COVID 19. I am a perfectionist and have a “get the job done” mentality when it comes to any task I am performing. My supervisors were always thoroughly impressed with my ability to catch on quickly, lead and teach others, organize, and critically think to solve problems.
