Expand Up @@ -9,16 +9,11 @@ Hello there, I'm John Kilpatrick!
I'm a Physics PhD student and amatuer software developer, based in Exeter, 🇬🇧.
I'm looking into how we can use a [fancy mirror array](//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_micromirror_device) that you might find inside a computer projector to turn things from translucent into transparent.

I am currently president of [Exeter Photonics](//twitter.com/exeterphotonics), which runs some outreach activities.

I graduated from the University of Exeter in 2020 with a master's degree in Physics with study in New Zealand.

Things I'm excited about at the moment:

- Building performant and accessible websites
- Cross-platform design systems
- Great developer experience without sacrificing user experience
- Hackathons that are inclusive and don't burn you out
When I'm you can find me hiking and camping in the beautiful Dartmoor countryside or chatting with friends over a cup of coffee.
I love being close to nature and discovering new places.

When I'm not staring at my computer, I like to get outside for a walk or bike ride.
Whilst I am not particularly strong, I also enjoy olympic-style weightlifting.
I'm also passionate about science outreach and connecting with others, so feel free to reach out and say hi!
I hope you find something interesting or useful here.
Feel free to [get in touch](/contact) if you have any questions or feedback.
