About Me:
I am originally from Manchester but have now moved down to Bristol for my work on a nuclear site that has been shut down. I am a big Manchester United fan despite the team not having the best of times lately. I am a qualified scuba diver and try and spend a lot of my time skiing in the mountains in Winter.

My Typical Day:
Day to day is extremely varied on a nuclear reactor site. The days starts at 7.30am where I will discuss with the team the priorities of the day. This can range from laboratory work, interacting with the regulators or assessments of decommissioning strategy. Work finishes at 5pm.

What I'd do with the prize money:
As part of the nucleargraduate scheme the graduates have started businesses in which all sales are donated to charities. I would plan to donate all the money into these especially the STEM box which aims to provide STEM boxes to schools to get children interested in science.
