      My dad was very in to science so he probably sparked my interest in it when I was very little. I had some really good teachers at school that were very passionate about science and recommended some good books to me. Big Bang by Simon Sing and The Meaning of it All by Richard Feynman are two that I really enjoyed.

      At the moment, my main goal is to publish a paper in a scientific journal and to get my PhD. I haven’t thought much further than that at the moment but I’m sure I want to stay working in physics!
