hobbies

What I get up to when I am not doing research or writing code.

Outside of research and code, a few things keep me sharp and keep me sane.

Chess

A game of chess in progress

Chess is my favourite way to unwind and stay sharp. I play regularly online and enjoy both rapid and blitz.

Feel free to send a challenge on either platform.

Movies

Inception movie poster

I love to watch movies and shows for entertainment and sometimes in free time binge-watch them. See a few of my favourites, grouped by genre, on my movies page.

Sports

Badminton and shuttlecock

I enjoy playing outdoor sports and going to the gym to stay fit and healthy. My favourite sports are badminton, football and cricket. I also enjoy swimming and playing pool.

Gaming

Clash royale game

When I want something more relaxed, I game. My current go-to is Clash Royale.

Building

I enjoy building solutions to some real world problems that I or others encounter. When I need a software tool and can’t find the right one, I usually build it myself. I also enjoy a bit of redneck engineering.
