RECENT PROJECTS
SKILLS
I am always trying to learn and develop skills that enrich my life! Below is a small window into the things I've learned and hobbies I'm proud to have.
Piano
I've been playing the Piano for over a decade and can play advanced pieces/read sheet music.
Marathon Running
I ran the 2024 Brighton Marathon in 04:27:21. I am really proud to overcome difficult challenges like this.
Parkour
I've been training Parkour for over half a decade - It's invaluable to know your body moves and it's limitations.
Programming
I've always loved creating! My videogames have been played over 500 million times.
Coming Soon...?
