Because I had such a bad math grade from my GCSE. I only had a C. But they wouldn't let me go into the ABC for math because of some kind of coursework requirement back then. So the top grade I could have got was a C. So C, D, or E. So I got a C. And they let me do kind of AS level math, which is this half intermediate and go to university. But in the end, I liked chemistry.

I have no idea other than I was really – I really like not understanding stuff. For me, when I not understand something, I didn't understand – I feel like I don't understand anything now. But back then, I was so – I remember when I was like – I don't know. I tried to build a laser when I was like eight. And I thought, how hard could it be? Like – And I basically, I was going to build a CO2 laser.

And I was like, right, I think I need some partially coated mirrors. I need some carbon dioxide. And I need a high voltage. So I kind of, and I was like, I didn't have, and I was so stupid, right? I was kind of so embarrassed. To make enough CO2, I actually set a fire and try to filter the flame out. Oh, nice. To crap enough CO2. And I was like, it completely failed.

And I burnt half the garage down. So my parents were not very happy about that. So that was one thing. I was like, I really like first principle thinking. And so, you know... So I remember being super curious and being determined to find answers. And so when people do give advice about this, well, I ask for advice about this. I don't really have that much advice other than don't give up.

And one of the things I try to do as a chemistry professor in my group is I hire people that I think that, you know, I'm kind of home. If they're persistent enough... Um, who am I to deny them the chance because, you know, people gave me a chance and I was able to do stuff.

I'm, I like, so I love being around smart people and I love confusing smart people. And when I'm confusing smart people and, you know, not by stealing their wallets and hiding it somewhere, but if I can confuse smart people, that is the one piece of hope that I might be doing something interesting.
