Interests

Outside of programming, my other main interests are cars and motorsport. I am an avid watcher of Formula 1, currently supporting McLaren, and also have an interest in WRC although I am not actively following it right now. I spend some of my free time working on my own car, and have a keen interest in classic JDM cars (especially Imprezas and Skylines).

I am also an active member of British Fencing, after having briefly tried the sport in high school and picking it back up at university. I fence in local competitions and have a preference for Sabre, although I have fenced all three weapons to a basic level.
