      My parents didn’t specifically push me in that direction. They have always encouraged my love of science, but it was my choice to study pregnancy. I did this because I have always been interested in mental health and child development. Pregnancy is a time where women can be vulnerable to mental health problems, but also is vital to child development so it was the perfect choice!

      No, my parents are not from the biology field. My mum is a teacher and my father an engineer. But they taught me to think critically and out of the box!
