Personal Overview:
I am a person who has always been dedicated to science as more than just an interest. I am constantly working towards the goal of improving my understanding of the world and improving my career as well so it coincides with this. I have held many different positions in my youth, varying from office work to street advertisement, and I bring with me all of these experiences and a strong ability to learn new skills. I am dedicated towards my work, and find joy in seeing a long term project I have been working on come to fruition. Many of my past experiences have given me a well-rounded knowledge of how to do most tasks, but I am not afraid to ask questions to learn new things if need be. I hope that I find a position one day that I will be happy to stay in for many years and form my life around.
