Interests

I love to read scientific novels, particularly those which span the fields of microbiology and astronomy. As a vegetarian and environmentalist, I enjoy watching documentaries on climate change and wildlife, as I believe it is important to understand the extent of our impact on the planet, and how best to address this(the answers lying in microbiology!). I follow an active and healthy lifestyle, with interests in dance, horse riding, yoga, and pilates.
