My droom vir my besigheid is om ons volgende Wetenskaplikes “groot” te maak. Wanneer ek eendag in die media hoor van die Wetenskaplike wat ‘n “cure” vir kanker of HIV gekry het wil ek met trots kan sê dat ek deel was van die “groot maak” proses!!!

Never before have I been appreciated or rewarded weekly for just doing my job – now, teaching Little Lab Coats, every week is rewarding just seeing the children’s faces, reactions, joy and growth.
