I just feel comfortable as soon as I walk into a woodland. I found my home

I always just followed my interests. Science…biochemistry…neuroscience…autism…entrepreneurship.
I didn’t set out to do what I’ve ended up doing, but it’s been an interesting journey. -

I didn’t really decide I wanted to become a Genomics Manger , I rolled in to the field of genomics and loved it, and it progressed from there really. I visited some large well known research centers during my PhD and saw some fabulous facilities so decided to try and help develop the facilities needed at our institute.

I never had a plan, and as i’ve continued my career and education i now know that that is OK. At school, I liked biology, and then at university i found out I was really passionate about conservation and the environment so that’s what guided my studying and since then everything has fallen into place!
I didn’t decide what to become, but i knew what i liked and I applied for jobs that offered that. I’m working now and I still don’t have a plan! -

I didn’t. Life brought me here, but it was not totally random. Different decisions you make may stir your life/career path in different directions.

By accident! I pursued my interest in art, and went to art college. Everyone told me I wouldn’t get a job in art/design, but I’ve been working in that field now for 15 years! There are lots of amazing and important things you can do with a creative degree, it opens lots of doors and opportunities:)
