I thoroughly enjoy learning new skills and have continued to increase my knowledge on a multitude of subjects through reading and completing courses such as the Google Analytics course. I taught myself how to play the keyboard and recorder and have been playing them for 4 years. I am a huge advocate for healthy living, so I regularly participate in different forms of exercise, such as going to the gym, playing sports such as basketball, tennis and cricket, as well as regularly walking. I am also a keen cook, who loves to bake and make a variety of dishes from around the world.
