Bio
I am an Astrophysicist working at a radio astronomy observatory. I thoroughly enjoy the process of acquiring knowledge and then imparting it to others.
I love empowering others especially in terms of learning. This is especially the case with regard to Maths and Science courses which I often stereotyped as being difficult. It gives me great pleasure to see someone develop and understand more and more in this regard.
