      Yes and no. When I was a child, I wanted to work with sharks. As I got a bit older, I realised that it would be quite difficult to do just that every day, so I thought about something that might take me there eventually. I went to vet school, and while I was there, I spent some time working with fish, rays, small sharks, and other cool marine life, and realised that I really wanted to work with rivers/fish. So although I’m not doing exactly what I wanted to do when I was younger, I’m still doing something related to it, and I really enjoy it.

      I think I just wanted to be rich and famous, I quickly realised it wasn’t going to happen as I was pretty ordinary. I wanted to be a geologist, realised it was hard to study in school so went to something I liked which was chemistry.
      Dream wise I have still lots of things I want to do, some I might others I probably will never manage but the fun is in trying, and being realistic
