Summary
I developed a strong interest in science through my Biotechnology program at vocational school, where I gained hands-on experience working in lab settings and learned how much I enjoy detailed, organized work. Being in that environment confirmed that I want to continue building a career in science, especially in laboratory-based roles. I'm dependable, hardworking, eager to learn, and have open availability to fully commit to a team and grow within a lab environment.
