Profile

I travel frequently between Brighton & CERN. When in Brighton my housemates are 4 other students from very different subjects. My favourite food is anything I can whip up quickly & easily. I watch every Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 rugby 🏉 & football ⚽ game. I play for Brighton Cougars 🐆 basketball 🏀 team. My preferred pronouns are he/him.

I use data from a detector longer than 3 school buses, taller than 5 giraffes and almost as heavy as the Eiffel Tower (a tiny fraction of which is in the background of this picture!). This detector takes millions of pictures every second of what comes out when we smash really high energy particles together.

…are just some of the things I do in a typical day! In the morning I might lead a Q&A session about particle physics with university students. Just before lunchtime I might give some school students a tour of our lab. Every lunchtime is spent having food with friends (this one isn’t a “might”). In the afternoon I might present my work in video calls to people from all over the world!
