I am from the Valleys of South Wales. I attended the University of Hull,
where I completed my MPhys. My Project was on "Solar Flare
Energetics" under the supervision of Dr. Sergei Zharkov. My project looked
at estimating the white light energy emitted by an X2.1 class solar flare using
the SDO/HMI continuum. As I greatly enjoyed the research aspects of the
project, I decided to go on to do a Ph.D. in solar physics.
