My background

I am currently studying a 4-year integrated-international theoretical physics course at the University of Leeds – with the international year being in Auckland, New Zealand. My international year gave me an incredible chance to experience many other cultures and has granted me with a better perception on life.

I also enjoy reading non-fiction, my recently finished book is Mans Search for Meaning which details the struggles of today’s society due to the decline in animalistic tendencies leading to existential problems. Relativity has always interested me; Gravitation is a 1300-page book which perfectly describes the ins and outs of Einstein’s general relativity from the perspective of Reimann Manifolds – I feel this book should be read by anyone interested in physics and I would very much enjoy one day teaching this material.

In my own time, I enjoy watching and playing cricket at my local club and the park with my relatives. I also cross-country run to keep physically fit with morning and night-time meditation being part of my daily life for many years. My younger sister and I regularly sit at the dinner table where I teach her an increasing amount of mathematics due to her very inquisitive nature.
