About

I am an experienced Medical Laboratory Scientist with interests in the fields of biochemistry, transfusion science and immunology. I am currently pursuing postgraduate studies in medical laboratory science at the University of Otago. I enjoy laboratory work and the science behind it to make informed decisions and aid in diagnostic analysis as well as development of new assays and diagnostic tools in the medical community. My managers would describe me as a confident and resourceful individual who maintains a positive, proactive attitude in any situation. I like to take the lead!
