Career Interests and Goals
Primarily interested in working as an environmental scientist but would happily consider other fields, such as:
- Horticulture
- Water treatment/management
- Forestry
- etc
My goal is to work in a field where I can be intellectually engaged by problem solving and new information.

Favourite aspect of biology and why?
I am fascinated by life, as a concept, and how organisms interact with each other & their environment. This is why I have always enjoyed hobbies such as gardening and aquaponics. In high school I found it very relaxing to watch my fish and plants exist within the small ecosystem I maintained.
Favourite aspect of computer science and why?
From my limited experience I know that I enjoy computer science in the same way I do puzzles. Problem solving and critical thinking are involved and in many cases clever solutions can save you a lot of work. This means that there are viable options if you understand the basics but cleverness is rewarded in a very satisfying way.
