Summary

Driven individual with a strong educational background in biology and laboratory procedures. Through work at university I have become

proficient in data analysis and problem-solving, with excellent communication and teamwork abilities. Committed, motivated and keen to embrace new knowledge. An example of this in addition to educational achievements are travel experiences. Most recently after leaving university, having travelled around South America for 3 months. It was challenging but thoroughly rewarding and helped me take on new responsibilities with my travelling companions, often finding myself in positions of leadership as the adventure developed.
