Question: What or who inspired you to follow your career?

In secondary school, my favourite subjects were biology and home economics so I knew I wanted to work in science or food. I saw there was a course called nutrition and health science where I could learn about both science and food. My biology teacher in secondary also inspired me to study science. When I did my work placement in college I got experience working in a microbiology research lab and I loved it. So I decided to continue my education and study microbiology.
