About me.

Despite having an interest in all things Science and Engineering when I was younger, I chose to pursue Physics, a decision driven by passion for wanting to know how things work, as well as the broad range of disciplines encompassed.

Fascinated by my subject, I now study MSc Optics and Photonics at Imperial College, after graduating from the University of Sheffield with 1st class honours, and additionally completing two industrial placements.

As well as Physics, I have always liked Electronics and Programming. My skills reflect this, and over time has guided me towards both Software and Photonics. During my placement year, I experienced how influential data skills can be, where I was able to make an immediate and significant impact to multiple aspects of design and quality.

When I'm not immersed in projects, I like to play Saxophone, enjoy playing squash & going to the gym.

I am currently searching for both photonics engineer roles and PhD research opportunities, particularly 2D materials and topological photonics for quantum technologies.

Thank you for taking an interest. Please feel free contact me for CV & references, via email or LinkedIn.
