About Me
I am currently studying undergraduate mathematics, which I adore, but have varied interests such as physics, classical music, English literature, British history, sailing and tall ships, and philosophy, especially philosophy of science, epistemology and metaphysics, and moral philosophy. In my spare time, I enjoy listening to In Our Time and going to public maths lectures.

Books
Some of the books I love are:
 * How to Read and Do Proofs by Daniel Solow
 * Proofs and Refutations by Imre Lakatos

Philosophers

 * Plato
 * David Hume
 * Galen Strawson

Composers

 * Rachmaninov
 * Jean Sibelius
 * Miklos Rosza
 * Max Bruch

Areas of Maths

 * Knot Theory (See my summer project on General Seifert Matrices of Celtic Knots )
 * Analysis (which I am currently studying at undergraduate level)
 * Proof Theory (which I pursue in my spare time)

Crafts

 * Knitting (which combines surprisingly well with maths)
