Doctoral Scholar
City, University of London,
Northampton Square, London, United Kingdom.

"I feel that I have always been a researcher/teacher at heart, as a youngster I am regularly taking things apart and trying to find out how they were built, worked and found the easiest way to learn it. I am constantly looking to satisfy my curiosity of the physical world around me". Along with I possess the required discipline, enthusiasm, and the will power not to give up.
