Media & Show Reel
I am an enthusiastic science communicator and have been involved with many media projects. From explaining science on TV and the radio, to performing on a stage, recording podcasts, and interaction on projects behind the scenes I try to let my enthuiasm for science shine through for all of these things. Check out my YouTube channel to see the astronomy and science interest videos I've made. Of particular note is my work with BBC Radio Oxford, presenting a half hour monthly astronomy show covering what to see in the night sky and a discussion of the past month's space news. Below is a list of some of the media outlets and projects I've been involved with:

Bright Club
Stand-up comedy - by scientific researchers? What could possibly go wrong? As an Astrophysicist people often have no idea what you do, with hilarious consequences. Watch me make light of this and pull out my Ukulele for a quick Frozen parody.
Astrobites
I summarise a published journal paper each month at an undergraduate level with the blogging website astrobites. Check out all the past articles I've written here.
