About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Finish my PhD while trying to also live, love and fulfil my other interests in life.

ABOUT ME (To edit)

I'm a 27 year old English guy. But where I'm from isn't so important, it's where I am right now and where I'm going next. I was in Iowa (just left) on a work placement, then toured the states and arrived back in Bath for my final year at university. Now I am in Oxford doing research into Islet cell transplantation. I love to travel and really want to immerse myself in other cultures and see the world. I have a huge passion for music, philosophy and biology (my career). I love to talk about anything. I'm open minded and very genuine. The rest just ask.

PHILOSOPHY

Live life to the full. No fear. No excuses.
