Biography

I am a PostDoc working with Kitty Meeks and Jessica Enright on their Multilayer algorithms project.

Before this I was a PostDoc in the at the Computer Lab, University of Cambridge Thomas Sauerwald.

I Completed my PhD at the University of Warwick under the supervision of Agelos Georgakopoulos and before that I did an undergrad in Maths at University College London.
