I am a highly motivated Technology graduate in Biotechnology, with excellent grades. I have a good 5 years' experience from an MNC in Information Technology sector - which exposed me to the vast arena of technological possibilities. I took a sabbatical for child care and family business. This time was also utilized to develop new skills including, but not limited to, Adobe Flash Animation, Machine Learning and Data Visualization. I am ready to get back and be resourceful again. I intend to exploit my knowledge in biological science and the extensive technical resources and continue the journey of learning and researching. During my years of self-learning I realized my keen interest in taking up the real life challenges and then finding solutions to them, leading me to develop regard for analysis and subsequent development. My technical background provides the necessary information about the limitations and advantages in a proposed solution, helping me to make decisions faster. I have been forced to become a better manager of resources. I am particularly interested in exploring the field of Bioinformatics to analyze data and subsequently develop high sensitivity algorithms.
