Hey theređź‘‹, I'm Delana

I'm a 14 year old... well... nerd... with a ton of passions! Welcome to my website, where you'll find out all about me :)

What do I do?

Turns out, I do a pretty eccentric collection of different things...

Physics

I LOVE physics. Solving a tricky physics problem is one of my favourite activities: there is nothing like the feeling of getting the answer after so much work

Maths

You can't enjoy physics without enjoying Maths: and of course as the physics enthusiast I am, I no doubt love the beautiful discipline that is mathematics.

Coding

If coding this website (not vibe coded, I promise) isn't enough to convince you that I'm a massive coding nerd, then I'm sure my GitHub will!

Art

As weird as it may seem for someone who at first glance is very science-oriented, it's true: I am a big artist. Check out my art here!

Chemistry

It may come as no surprise that my love for physics has also manifested in the form of a passion for Chemistry.

Hackathons

Watching people smile, having fun, making an impact to my community and knowing that I was a part in making that happen is one of the best feelings in the world. As part of the core team of Youthacks I help run free student hackathons (events where teens come together to make things)!

Reading

It will come as no surprise that I am an avid reader: however what might be surprising is just how eclectic my taste is. I love reading and have done since I was very young: Fantasy fiction is a lifelong favourite of mine, of course I really enjoy reading popular science and physics/maths textbooks, and recently I have been interested in mystery books like those by Jenniffer Lynn Barnes.

Debating

I'm an active member of my school's debating society and have done many competition in debating and public speaking such as the rotary and Churchill speaking competitions, SHHS and more. I'm a multi-time finalist in my school's annual internal debating cup as well!

..and more!

It doesn't end there! I've got a ton of weird and wonderful hobbies, whether that's gaming, LEGO, writing, FIRST robotics, selling things, collecting figures, making videos...
