About Me:
Lasers in space–this is my current work!
Hiya, my name is Viviene and I used to work with big, powerful lasers, and automation but now I focus on lasers for space (internet in space maybe?) and sometimes work on lasers that could be used for healthcare. I’m a small girl who likes plants and double cream Oreos. I spend time reading and watching science-related stuff and when I’m not, I’m usually spending time with family and friends.

I am a scientist working in Johnson Matthey, Reading. I work Monday to Friday from around 9 to 4.30 in the office and the rest of the time I spend with my family.

I don’t have any other close relatives in the UK. Luckily I have many good friends around me.
Until my masters, I studied in India and then moved out of the country with my husband. I am Muslim, as you can see from (I belive you can guess) the profile picture with me wearing hijab. One year in Norway, 6-7 years in Denmark and finally settled in the UK. I did my PhD from Denmark.
