I am a bubbly person with a science passion. I enjoy helping motivated students and can be quite creative at times.

Availability: Monday and Thursday

Willing to travel: 10 miles

Experience: I graduated with a PhD in Biotechnology from United Kingdom. During my time as a student, I was a visiting lecturer overseeing lab work and assisting students with their projects; mainly in molecular biology, biotechnology and microbiology.
Soon after, I started working as a drug discovery researcher in Japan. I worked there for 3.5 years, mainly doing molecular biology, cell culture, genetics, toxicology and pharmacology.

Currently, I volunteer at the council as a tutor for primary/secondary kids.
