I have worked as a professional sailor, oceanographer and now teach science and physics at a private school on the beautiful island of Bermuda.
Whilst I have always had an interest in science and a fascination in how things work, it has really been since I have started to teach science that I see just how much science really underlies all that we do and experience. Whether it is looking at thunderclouds forming on the horizon and preparing for a storm, cycling, sailing, cooking or even listening to music - science really is everywhere!
