About Me
Music: I have played the violin since the age of 8 and guitar since the age of 15. Whilst studying for my A levels I was the singer in an amateur band with friends and enjoyed success at some small local gigs. I particularly enjoy Latin American music and intend to attend a course in Latin American dance in the near future.
Reading and Writing: I have a passion for literature and spend much of my free time reading a range of modern literary classics. I have aspirations of one day becoming a published author of fiction.
Art: I enjoy drawing and painting, water colours being my preferred medium although I also like to experiment with oil paints. I also like to visit art galleries and museums.
Sport: I am a keen cyclist and play 11 a-side soccer on Saturdays and Sundays whilst at university. Achieved Silver Duke of Edinburgh Award.
