Bio
I'm a friendly, meticulous and hard-working individual intrigued by biology and leading a healthy lifestyle. I'm a competitive trail runner fascinated with the human body and the outdoors.
I'm logical yet creative which makes me good at explaining difficult concepts in an original way. I believe understanding is superior to memorizing. One remembers concepts when one understands them. Anyone can memorize or google! I'm currently completing my Postgraduate Certificate in Education to become a high school biology teacher. Education is the most important tool you can receive.
