      I was probably around 12 or 13 when I first became really interested in science, but I was 16 or 17 when I decided to pursue science as my career.

      I think I was around 13 when I start to have my first real scientific experiment to do and I really like it.

      I was in 5th year (16/17 years old) when I developed a passion for science, particularly biology.

      Science subjects (physics, chemistry) were among my favourites in secondary school.
      One of my school teachers said: study what you are passionate about.
      An academic advisor said: don’t study physics but electrical engineering.
      I studied physics and never regretted it!

    The curiosity was always there. I had collectibles. I got my first science toy in a Kinder egg chocolate when I was about 10 – a 2x magnifier eye piece. I used it to document small creepy-crawlies around the house.
