Summary
Bachelor of Science graduate majoring in Genetics and Microbiology from La Trobe University, driven by a deep curiosity about the natural world and a genuine love of science. I am eager to apply my understanding of microbiological and genetic concepts—alongside practical experience with molecular techniques, microbial culturing, and data analysis—in a professional setting. With a strong foundation in both theory and hands-on laboratory work, I am seeking full-time or part-time opportunities where I can contribute meaningfully to scientific progress while continuing to build my knowledge and skills through real-world application.
