Author Bio

I had a science-oriented background in high school, participating in all kinds of International Olympiads. This was my way of getting where I am now, but I have learnt there are many different ways to do just the same. My mind opened quite a lot since I started college and it has been a great experience: I have learned a lot outside my primary interests, I have tried a lot of things I didn’t know existed before, and I feel encouraged to continue this way and to explore everything that sounds like I might enjoy it. I don’t know where I will be or where this will get me, but I am sure I will be happy to have done all these things.
