If you went to university, where did you go and what did you study? If you didn’t go to university, what did you do instead?

I studied undergraduate medical sciences at Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge, before intercalating and taking a masters in History and Philosophy of Science, a branch of Natural Sciences. I am now studying Graduate Entry Medicine at St Peter's College, Oxford and I also teach anatomy.

What influence has Lancing College had on your life?

Lancing taught me the importance of a healthy work-life balance, including the value of taking time out of academics to enjoy music, sport and social life.

What advice would you give to a new pupil who is about to start at Lancing?

You get as much out of the college as you put in, so take the opportunity to immerse yourself and try the full range of activities on offer until you find your niche.
