Biochemistry
I have a BSc degree in biochemistry and physiology (double major), which I passed cum laude (i.e. with more than 75%). I then went on to complete my BSc Honors degree in pure biochemistry, for which I also achieved a cum laude pass. This is a very interesting, yet complex subject which I am passionate about.

English Language and Literature
In high school I achieved more than 80% as my final matric mark for English as my home language. Additionally, having a Master's degree (MSc) in the scientific field requires me to frequently write, edit and publish articles in peer-reviewed journals which undergo a rigorous process of review and revisions. Therefore, I have extensive experience in English writing and communication skills.
