Biography

I am from Australia but I grew up in South-East Asia. I have travelled over the world a lot and I am full of a love of learning and a passion for sharing what I have learned. I have degrees and qualifications from The University of Queensland and The University of Melbourne in Education and Science (in the fields of microbiology, genetics and plant science). While I am heavy on the sciences I am also very keen on the arts and humanities. I see an opportunity here to expand my horizons and possibly find some new areas I would like to explore.
