Masters student at OXford

How I looked for postgraduate options

Looked for good opportunities online and had a chat with my supervisor at the time.

How I found out about the postgraduate place

Recommended by academic

The application process

Quite long.

Why I continued studying

I wanted to dig deeper into some computer science related courses and saw in Oxford a good opportunity to have fun and study.

What my course is like

Pretty intense at times (terms in Oxford are only 8 weeks long) but there's also plenty of time to do other things and enjoy the town.

How I have funded my studies

Personal savings.

What I like most

Chocolate, underwater rugby, being outdoors.

What I like least

English weather

What surprised me most

Trump being considered an actual presidential candidate in the U.S.

My advice to students considering further study

Stop and think a lot about what you want to actually do. It might not be the best option to go straight into further studies.

Contacting me

I'm happy to chat about anything really. It doesn't have to be only about maths or comp. sci.
I'm also open to mentor someone to get some experience.
