I wanted to be an inventor when I was younger and I was always asking lots of questions like 'if you made corrugated solar panels with refractive prisms inside the grooves, could you increase the surface area and therefore the performance...?'

I realised pretty fast that its hard to find the answer to these ideas unless you have the money to experiment and so took a batchelors degree in CS instead. I love that its possible to have a software idea and prototype it really fast and put it out there. After doing a Masters in Bioinformatics I became more interested in the application of data I became a marketing analyst. Right now I have my own company Knry which is making sensory based technology for Firefighters and do some freelancing on the side. I think I am on my way to reaching my youthful dream career.




Nice, congratulations for following through on your dream :)
