I'm a Postdoctoral Research Associate in Mathematical Epidemiology under the supervision of Prof. Robin Thompson at the Mathematical Institute, University of Oxford.
I am also a Stipendiary Lecturer in Applied Mathematics at Lady Margaret Hall, University of Oxford.
My current research interrogates when non-spatial epidemic models are sufficient to predict a major disease outbreak, and when spatial effects are dominant.
Prior to my current project, I completed my D.Phil (PhD) under the supervision of Prof. Philip Maini and Prof. Ruth Baker, where I constructed mathematical models of single and collective cell migration.
I enjoy working on many problems in mathematical biology, using a broad range of techniques from across applied mathematics, including agent-based models, partial-differential equations, applied graph theory, optimal control, and solid mechanics.
I'm always keen to talk about maths and looking for new collaborations — please reach out!
