My name is Daniel Garry and I'm studying for a degree in Computer Science and Mathematics. I hope to go on and do a postgraduate degree after that, but I should wait until I've finished my undergraduate one first. I was born and raised in England, but my ancestry is Irish. I can't think of anything interesting to put here.
