        Yes! I love it!

        I get to have fun at work every day, I spend time in the labs doing experiments and working with really great people. The best thing is that you never really know what’s going to happen each day when you come to work! Maybe something will work, maybe it won’t, maybe it’ll explode! :-s ! haha.

        I also enjoy the travel opportunities you get in science 🙂

        Yes, very much. It is both challenging and rewarding field.
        I wish more people liked it, but i like convincing them that it is not as hard as they think it is. Science really is for everyone, it applies to every living thing on the planet so no matter your interests, science is all around us so if you know a little more about it you can appreciate everything from the phone you are using, to the night sky to why what you eat for lunch is important.

        Yep! I love my job. My favourite part is being able to do this, to talk to you guys about science and to see how enthusiastic you guys are!
