  Hey!
  No i’ve never been called a nerd! everyone i speak to or tell about my job thinks what i do is really cool! – I dont fit the stereotype of a mad scientist either, and been young makes it easier for me to try and get people to think that science is cool too!
  
  Whats you fav bit about science? 🙂
