Why did you choose your career?

When i was a child, I love all the things of the nature, animals especially, I had a lot of hamsters, two cats and a dog. With them I had a very fun childhood. In the back of my yard was a river, in which i spent most of the time, throwing stones, looking for insects, building bows, arrows and spears with tree branches. All of this contact with the earth made me generate an early love for biology.

Then when i got older, the technology made me his slave, I became interested in programming and nothing mattered me more than spend all the time I could in the computer. When I discovered that the programming involved know much of mathematics and calculus i had lost interest in it.

When i was in seventh grade, i started having biology and chemistry, both with the same teacher and at that time they began to be my favorite subjects. I loved to know how cells functioned, that they were composed and how that was combined with the chemistry. I was closer to the biochemistry.

Then, while i was in secondary education, I was more and more sure to study something related to biological research. And in the last year i decided for biochemistry, because i started to feel attraction for the astrobiology, the study of life in other planets, the discovery of organic molecules in meteorites, colonize other galaxies and a lot of other interesting things.
