I frequently forget that I have a Bluesky account but here I am to say that last week I successfully defended my PhD thesis! It’s been a wild ride but one I am eternally grateful for!

Well the thesis is submitted which feels slightly surreal, and hasn’t sunk in yet really. Does it ever? Well here’s a visual representation of the last 3.5 years of work. Somewhere in the scribbled and nonsensical notes in these notebooks, a PhD thesis was born.

A stack of around 15 notebooks of different colours, sizes.

If you fancy a quick 10 minute read over a cuppa, please consider this short article I wrote for EPOCH in autumn last year!

I think one of my most frequent tasks in finishing this thesis is googling ‘synonyms of…’

I’m at the point with my thesis, that near submission, that part of my dream last night revolved around me having forgotten to include any apostrophes in the whole document…
