I am a master’s student at the University of the Free State, South Africa, focusing on climate studies. Passionate about environmental conservation, my academic journey is driven by a deep-seated commitment to addressing the complex challenges facing our planet. 
 
I joined a centre in March 2024 as a research assistant, where I explore nature-based solutions using microorganisms, aiming to harness their potential in mitigating environmental issues. Additionally, I share my knowledge as a part-time lecturer, guiding students through calculus and sharing my passion for the biological world.
