      Good question Tori!

      I was very young when i saw my first shuttle launch- I knew then that is what I wanted to do. I didn’t always work towards working in space, but all the different things I had done everything came together in 2012 when I was offered a place at King’s College London to study Space Physiology and health; everything I have done since has been space related, and it’s great!

      Star Trek Voyager (TV series) and then the ISS itself – I watched it being built from the start in 1998 and it was the most wondrous feat of engineering I had ever seen!
