About Me

Hello there! My name is James Kimmins and I am a twenty-year-old Physics student currently studying at the University of Warwick in the United Kingdom. I am expected to completed my integrated-masters degree in 2027 after which I intend to begin a PhD in particle Physics. My passion for Physics is complemented by a strong interest in politics, current affairs, and the broader fields of technology and science.

In addition to my academic pursuits, I am highly involved with my university's students' union through my various course and faculty representative positions. I also take pride in improving the studies of my fellow students through my position as Treasurer of Warwick Physics Society.

Should you wish to get in touch with me, please feel free to reach out via the email address listed above. You can also access a copy of my CV here. I will do my best to respond promptly to any inquiries.
