I am a senior bioinformatics scientists, with a focus on *omics data analysis at the New Zealand Institute for Bioeconomy Sciences (formerly AgResearch Ltd), near Christchurch in New Zealand. 

Prior to moving to New Zealand, I worked in a similar position at the Agricultural Research Center in Pretoria, South Africa. I was fortunate to spent 3 years as a postdoctural researcher at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver after completing my PhD at the University of Pretoria.
