Our Treasurer, Tom!

Posted on March 12, 2022 by Media in Club News

Hi everyone!

My name is Tom and I am the current Treasurer of the club. This is the boring position where I stare at numbers and make sure things are all going according to plan. Aside from that I am also one of the instructors of the club (until the day I become too weak and useless…) so I look forward to interacting with EVERYBODY at training. 

Some facts about me (warning: may not be interesting)

  1. I have been at the University of Sydney since 2007! Was a student of Physics when I joined this club, and now I am lucky to have been given a job at this University. I’m older than some of the new buildings today…!  🤯
  2. I love coffee – I have about 5-6 cups a day. But I’m no snob – Nescafe Blend 43 from Coles is just fine by me. (I hereby claim that I am in no way sponsored by Nestle….though if they want to, I’m open to the idea :P)
  3. Arnold Schwarzenegger is one of my heroes. I grew up watching his movies and I just love people who work so hard at what they love doing. It’s so much that I stare at a print out of him while I exercise everyday on my balcony. To live a healthy and happy life, his six rules are a pretty good start: trust yourself, break some rules, don’t be afraid to fail, ignore the naysayers, work your butt off, and give something back. 

See you at training!

A physicist at work – more details here https://www.ansto.gov.au/news/miriad-profile-nandin-member . To be honest it’s more of a “what I like to think I do, whereas in reality I just sit in front of a computer all day.
