Fun Side

A peek at what I am up to outside of research.

Powerlifting

I am into powerlifting — few things beat the simplicity of adding weight to the bar. Training at a 75 kg body weight, my current personal bests and where I want to take them:

LiftCurrent PBGoal
Squat160 kg200 kg
Bench press130 kg145 kg
Deadlift175 kg230 kg
Total465 kg575 kg

Languages

I enjoy learning languages and consider myself multilingual. I am currently learning German, at around B1 level. After that, Spanish and Cantonese are next on the list.

Outdoors & photography

I like hiking and spending time on trails — a good way to reset between training blocks and research deadlines. I also enjoy photography; a small gallery may show up here eventually.

Reading

Mostly politics, history, and non-fiction novels. Recommendations are always welcome.
