I would like to be regarded as a Renaissance man, but I am often mistaken for a Noughty boy. In my time I have competed in Latin and Ballroom on the Strictly floor, played Hamlet, released an EP, and been arrested. I read PPE at the University of York. I live, work, and breathe the city. Most of my time is spent writing, and most of that is for Nouse, York’s oldest student paper. I hope to be working at a national paper when I graduate, but I have contingencies.
