Gallery of Favourite Photos:

Personal interests include:

Photography - Living in York and working on campus has lead to an interest in photography. Above is a collection of snapshots taken since 2008. The Department has been kind to allow me to publish photos on its website. Many staff photos have been published in University magazine issues. My husband initially gave me a small compact camera for my birthday in 2008 and then built me a pc and gave me a better camera for another birthday in 2011. I've been enjoying my husband's photography for years; The Department of Mathematics has four of his photos in its galleries - Minster, another Minster shotMinster ceiling shot, my portrait.

Photo publishing success: Photos, of Professor Sanju Velani have appeared on the EPSRC website and in the EPSRC Pioneer magazine September 2012 edition, of Professor Evgeni Skylanin FRS has been published on the University of York's front page, of Professor emeritus Nigel Cutland in the Guardian newspaper print version (page 3, 11th December 2010, Money section) and of Nicholas Page (Mathematics Graduate Secretary) in a book entitled 'The Best Days of Our Lives? Secondary Education in York 1900-1985' - ISBN 978-1 874454 49 6.

Sport: TaeKwondo (York TAGB) since ~January 2009 studying with Andy Parr (2nd in the world in 2007) physics and cricket teacher at St Peter's School (astrophysics masters, Leeds).  I was placed 2nd in the Blue belt, Lightheavy weight division at the TAGB English Championships 2012 in Telford, losing to Claire Burke, astrophysics PhD student at Liverpool John Moores University.
