My mum told me that I really wanted to be a hair stylist when I was younger, but I definitely wanted to be a cartoon artist for Disney for a very long time! I think even when I started my Biology degree I still planned to take art classes at the same time, but it never worked out.

As a child I wanted to follow my dad and become a medical doctor. Like some of you I too used to think that Scientists are mysterious unrelatable people. I never really knew any scientist nor had ever talked to any during my childhood. As a teenager I wanted to become a Biomedical engineer to help improve healthcare. 🙂 The scientist bit was a gradual step while I was following my curiosity. 🙂

I actually hated science at primary school, but loved it when I went to secondary school! I remember my first science and geography lesson and being captivated. Especially by volcanoes, hurricanes, coasts, climate change and space. Since then I knew I wanted to go into science. But was very unsure on how to get there and what exactly I wanted to do. I then picked my GCSE’s based on subjects that I was interested in and wanted to learn more about. I was never clever at school and was not allowed to take physics as a GCSE, which is why I ended up going down the geography route. After GCSE’s I continued with my education and decided to do A-levels. I ended up picking my favourite subjects Geography and Chemistry. I also took Maths although I actually wanted to ICT instead but that clashed with Chemistry. Geography, became my firm favourite choice and got really interested in the weather (meteorology), so decided to continue with Geography at university. But in the end I have my dream job as being a scientist 🙂
