        Hey 🙂

        Well I am in the final year of my PhD now so in 5 years I will be 4 years out…and I will be 30 years old! (gulp) I’d like to have a postdoctoral research position (that’s a research job that you get after your PhD) in a good university working on some interesting materials with the possibility of moving up the academic ladder, although that is not easy to do! I would also like to be doing some lecturing to undergraduate chemistry and physics students. Hopefully, I will be living in the UK with my boyfriend and a dog or a cat (or even better both)! I would also like to have done a lot more travelling in the next 5 years, there are a few countries I really want to visit like Germany, Belgium, New Zealand, Austrailia and Japan.
