CURRENT MISSION

live a great life

ABOUT ME

I grew up in a small city near Warsaw, Poland. I still have my best friends there and I am really glad that thousands of kilometers between us doesn't change that.

During high school I participated in a few polish-german exchange programs. That was the first time I experienced how awesome life far from home can be. From the very beginning of high school times biology was something I was most interesting in. And nothing has changed throught the years.

I started studying biology and chemistry at the University of Warsaw in 2009. Three years later I was on an internship in Cambridge, UK, what launched my ongoing international experience. Then, I lived for half a year in Goettingen, Germany and a year in Chicago (great city). I am currently pursuing a PhD project in biophysics in Basel, Switzerland.

Since I was a little kid I loved playing football. It was even my dream to become a successful football player. It didn't happen so to feed my needs I play with my friends in a semi-professional league whenever I'm in Poland. Good enough.

In my free time I meet my friends. Reading books is fun as well.
