Elizabeth Smassanow, BA

Laboratory Technologist

Background

I grew up in Ballston Lake NY and attended Shenendehowa Schools from kindergarten to 12th grade. I graduated with a regents diploma in 2000 and decided to go to SUNY Albany to study anthropology. There I was involved in co-coaching a novice crew team for a short time and was also involved in Circle K, a community service club, for 2 years. I also interned at the NYS museum and worked on archaeological conservation. I graduated from SUNY Albany in May 2004 with a BA in anthropology and a minor in Art history.

Special Interests

I enjoy playing soccer, listening to music and watching TV shows on TLC, Discovery and Animal Planet. I am interested in archaeology, forensics and other medical professions.

I currently work as a laboratory technician and my previous roles were medical assistant, administrative assistant and billing specialist. I really enjoy this job and I hope to learn new things that I can take with me to aid in my future endeavors.
