My Life as a Mom

  • My first daughter is born

  • School as a single mom

    In September 1998 I started my life as a university student. Being a single mom, I had to find baby-sitters, while I was at school as well as while I was working. It was a struggle to make ends meet but with the support of my parents, I managed to make it through my first term.
  • Graduation

    After 5 years of university, I managed to graduate with a 4 year major degree in microbiology (with distinction).
  • First Job

    Spent my first summer after graduation working in a lab researching mercury digesting bacteria. This is a pivotal moment in my life as this is where I met my future husband
