I work on the Future Morph website and social media – showing the tonnes of options available to them after studying science and maths. What’s great about Future Morph is that is smashes stereotypical views of what a “scientist” looks like and shows that studying these subjects can lead to amazing things!
-
What I'd do with the prize money: Use it to spread the message that science & maths are for everyone, and lead to so many exciting careers

I’d maybe put it towards creating more future morph resources – we already have careers website checklists and posters that are very popular, so could print more of these off as a free schools resource, or develop new ones. The Science Council (who run Future Morph) made a list of the “10 types of scientist” so using that to create new materials would also be pretty cool We’ll have to see!

My Interview
-
How would you describe yourself in 3 words?
Adventurous, enthusiastic, sporty
Were you ever in trouble at school?
Not really, although one time I got told off for singing Bohemian Rhapsody (by Queen) in class.
Who is your favourite singer or band?
It changes so often! At the moment I’m a bit obsessed with Bastille
What's your favourite food?
Chocolate. Always chocolate.
What is the most fun thing you've done?
Cliff jumping! I was travelling round Europe by train and when we were in Italy one of the hostel-owners took us out on his little boat to these cliffs in the ocean. It was terrifying and amazing!
If you had 3 wishes for yourself what would they be? - be honest!
I would love a super great science job and still be able to do all tons of triathlons (including an Ironman!), and to visit every country in the world (even if it’s just a quick stop!)
Tell us a joke.
I’m reading a great book on anti-gravity. I can’t put it down.
