Bio

I am a writer and creative, passionate about fostering public awareness of mental health, cultural issues, women's rights, and scientific breakthroughs.

Having trained as a molecular virologist for nearly a decade, I am knowledgeable in and enjoy digesting basic and translational research, particularly in the areas of biotech., immunotherapy, gene and cell therapy, microbiology, pathobiology, and epidemiology.

My childhood dream was to tell stories, and I'm happily living that dream. My storytelling is driven by my insatiable curiosity; I'm always looking for something new to learn.
