I am currently in my penultimate year of the Physics with Astrophysics MSci program at the University of Glasgow. Additionally, I served as a class representative for both Physics 2 and Physics 3, which helped me gain confidence in representing others—something I am passionate about and plan to continue in the future. I also occasionally participate in debates at the GU Union and am active on social media, particularly regarding political issues. Furthermore, I am the Publicist for both the GU Physics Society and the UofG Liberals, where I also serve as Treasurer.
