About Me
I am from Trinidad & Tobago but I live in Wexford and enjoy walks on the beach with my puppy. I am a soil scientist, a hufflepuff and a book & movie lover.

My Typical Day
My day starts with black coffee and breakfast for my puppy. I head to work for 9 am where I usually have meetings with other researchers all over Europe. During lunch I usually talk with friends or read a book. In the afternoons I catch up on emails and work on reports. I go home at 5:15 pm.
