Bucket List: Tori Mattmiller

My first goal, and my most important goal, is to gain a job as a chemical pathologist. I would love to publish many new scientific articles and gain a name for myself. 

Other than career goals I have many things I wish to accomplish in my lifetime. I want to travel the world. I would love to see Greece or Ancient Egypt. Ever since seeing the spectacular ruins of both places I have been in complete awe. I would also like to explore Africa. My father is from Nigeria and he tells me frequently about all of the family I have there. It would be pretty neat to get to meet them and learn about their culture. Let’s not forget about the amazing wildlife found in Africa! I would be so mesmerized to see  elephants their natural habitat. 

One of my smaller goals in life is to go to a concert. I don’t really listen to much music but it would be cool to have the experience. 

Something else that would be incredible to do before I die is to discover a new element. I would obviously name it Toranium. Toranium’s chemical symbol would we To. 

The last thing I would like to do is go to a beach. I know this goal might be small but I’ve never been to the beach. My family never went on vacations so I never had the opportunity. Hopefully I won’t get stung by a jellyfish!
