Summary

Passionate and career oriented biologist with a strong interest in Biochemistry, Conservation, Sustainability and Environmental Science. While I hope to find roles in my field in the future, I have a love for the hospitality industry. I enjoy my job as a bartender/barback where I can meet new people, utilize communication skills, and continue to improve my ability to work under pressure.
