Skiing is a passion and a way of life.
If it's got snow on it, it's skiable - not necessarily sensible, but skiable.
I'd rather be on the mountain thinking about science than in the lab thinking about skiing
In professional life, I'm a scientist, academic and
entrepreneur. But my passion is skiing, and each winter
season brings its own special adventures. To see what I'm up
to, keep track, or to engage with others, follow me on
