Hobbies
I am interested in multiple aspects of the media such as podcasts, films and online culture. I love having discussions on many topics such as politics, the environment, philosophy, sociology and the general state of the world. I am an active tennis player and follower of several other sports, especially rugby, cricket and AFL. I am well-traveled, especially in the Asia region, and have a resulting interest in the culture of that area.
