Robin is an amazing communicator, performer, pin badge designer and who'd have known it, photographer too?

Is there anything they can't do?!
If you're around London you should definitely take this opportunity to go see Kat be amazing on stage!

Also, I took that photo and it's really nice to see it being used 😁 I would love to do more portrait photography this year

🎶Talking nerd to nerd,
With a mic and laser pen,
Facts are flying fast,
We’re explaining why and when.

Graphs are on the screen,
Suddenly it all makes sense,
One bright, joyful little fact
Draws applause from all our friends.🎶

Not to late to nab a ticket for our upcoming shows!
