Personal
I'm hard-working and dedicated, willing to learn any new skills and
fit into any job. I made a change from genetics to computers building on
the similarities between the disciplines and now I feel I'm well qualified for both.
I roleplay, read widely, practise the martial arts and recently I
wrote my own role-playing game which will be published at the
end of May 1996.
