Sara Fontes

Sara Fontes is a fourth year Biochemistry and Molecular Biology student at UNBC. She came from the small town of Kitimat, BC to pursue a science degree and later apply to medical school. Some of her hobbies include: dancing, acting, playing tennis, and reading. When she started her degree, she was a health science student and had no interest in biochemistry; however, she was exposed to biochemistry in several of the classes and became so interested in the subject that she decided to pursue it as her major. She volunteered with Geneskool North because she has developed an appreciation of the study of genomics and would like to share that appreciation with others in a fun, hands-on way.
