Bike riding, reading, music, model building, runs a D&D club, drama arts and singing.
I enjoy bike riding, reading novels, listening to various musical artists from classical through to retro rock, and building models. I created a Dungeons and Dragons club after school collaborating with a teacher, also a member of Perth Academy of Performing Arts. I enjoy being in and around various groups of people and find it easy to communicate with people of all ages.
