Affiliations

  • I have a habit of collecting hobbies and interests to the point where I never have time for everything I'd like to do! My main interest at the moment is bouldering, so you will find me down at the bouldering gym almost every chance I get. I also enjoy running and used to also be keen on aerial acrobatics (trapeze, aerial straps, etc.)! Outside of more physical activities, I'm a keen reader, occasional writer, and even more occasional artist. Nowadays this mostly shows itself in drawing pokémon on demand for my son. I'm always keen to try new experiences and challenges - in 2019 I took on a Polar Circle marathon (which included running on the actual ice cap that leads to the North Pole) and last year I was part of a performance art piece called SHRINK, at Newcastle's NOVUM festival.
