In October 2020, I joined the STOR-i CDT<\/a> MRes programme in order to broaden my knowledge, learn and develop new skills, and to prepare myself for a PhD. This course focuses on a variety of topics within Statistics and Operations Research. Having come from a background in mathematics and statistics, I have some experience in a few topics but I always aim to keep an open mind and take every opportunity to learn as much as possible. My\u00a0blog page<\/a>\u00a0will be updated regularly so keep checking back to learn more about the STOR-i programme and my thoughts on current research areas that I encounter.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

For my undergraduate degree, I completed a MMath in Mathematics at the University of York, graduating in June 2020 with a First Class Honours (with Distinction). I started off learning a combination of pure maths and statistics modules, but towards the end of my degree I tailored my learning towards just statistics. I got the opportunity to complete a group project and a dissertation in data analysis which allowed me to apply my knowledge and problem solving skills to real life data. These opened my eyes to what research was like and so I wanted to develop my research skills and to do research.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

I enjoy playing table tennis, having played for over 10 years now. I was a core member of the University of York Table Tennis Club, both a team member and a committee member throughout my time at York. I hope to continue playing whilst at Lancaster (covid allowing).<\/p>

To pass the time, I like to play on my piano (or keyboard). Having achieved a Grade 8 in piano, I can play classical music but also enjoy playing “modern” songs too.<\/p>

Reading is a hobby I got into during lockdown (the first one), which I now do for enjoyment and learning. I read both fiction and non-fiction books, and am always looking for book recommendations so feel free to message me <\/a>to have a chat about books! Also, check out my reading list on Notion (icon below).<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
