Biography
I was born in Winchester, and grew up in a small village in Hampshire. After attending the local schools, I completed my AS and A2 qualifications at Peter Symonds College.
I completed my MPhys at Sussex University (1st Class with Honours), and decided to stay with the same supervisor and also do my PhD at Sussex.
Community and Business
Over my time at Sussex University I've been working on a side-project that has since turned into a business, Grapheel. I co-founded it with two other Sussex students (Daniel Hajas and Tim Lingard) to develop technological solutions that allow blind and visually impaired students/researchers access to science.
We are a not for profit organisation, and are always looking for volunteers to help our blind and visually impaired users.
