ABOUT

IMG_20220609_121804_590.jpg

My younger self was fascinated by many career options ... dreaming of being an astronaut, a doctor, or a locomotive engineer—all in one day.

However, two fields truly captured my interest: visual arts and scientific research.

The artistic side...

I started my art mentorship at the age of 7 and have been tutored from several national artists since then. This varied experience has given me the skills to work on many projects, which I share through exhibitions, private commissions, and collaborations with organizations and businesses. All pieces in my portfolio are also available as prints.

The scientific side...

I have also expressed my admiration towards the sciences by following advanced academic education in Biology, Chemistry and Psychology and have graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Medical Biochemistry, from the University of Malta, my motherland.  

I have been awarded my PhD by the University of Malta for my research on a type of leukaemia called Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia (CML)

I‘ve been drawn towards scientific research as I am particularly fascinated by the repercussions of discovery and invention. How with the right focus, funding and cooperation, the world of research keeps pushing what we thought was achievable. 

Want to learn Biology, academically or purely out of interest?

I had to opportunity to serve a term as the Creative director of a University organization I co-founded with a number of other enthusiastic students, called MBSA.

The association's role is to give a voice to young Biochemists on campus and beyond.
