• Worked as a part-time mathematics & physics tutor, as well as some ski instructing during the Australian winter.

Most recently I have been interested in:

• Learning C through experimenting with elliptic-curve cryptography and by trying to write a Bitcoin vanity address generator.
• Custom GNU/Linux desktop environments. I recently installed Arch (btw) on my new laptop and have been exploring customisation such as the tiling window manager i3:
  
• Cryptocurrency tech, primarily decentralised prediction markets & exchanges.
• Web scraping & other quickly cooked up python projects.
