      I was always confused between doing medicine or engineering. when I was 12 years old, I came across a medical engineer in hospital and I was confused how an engineer can work in hospital. I got so excited that I finally found something that not only required engineering studies but also having expertise in anatomy and physiology was necessary. I think that is how I choose engineering.

      I guess I always wanted to be an engineer. I was really interested in design technology at school and I wanted a university course that will let me design and build things. I realised engineering was exactly that.

      I did not always want to be an engineer. To begin with I wanted to be a product designer but while I was at university I learned that I enjoyed the science a lot. This made being an engineer a better fit for what I liked: problem solving with science.
