About Jim

About Jim Ross: Original photo by Ben Seven (http://benseven.co.uk)

Currently, I’m a PhD student at the University of Cambridge working in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance. Previous to that I was the University of Edinburgh, and graduated in 2009 with an M.Eng in Chemical Engineering.

I like watching and writing about movies, as you can maybe tell from this website. Having never studied film, I like to think I can bring a fresh but informed perspective to it and, fortunately, a number of outlets agree. A full portfolio of what I’ve managed to send out into the world can be found here.

I also follow a number of sports closely, mainly football and rugby union and I’ve had some writing on rugby 7s featured on sites other than my own. This also gave me the opportunity to hold a media pass for the IRB Edinburgh Sevens in 2009 and 2010 to do short interviews with the team coaches and assist with live text commentary.

Please feel free to contact me for anything to do with any writing or publications.
