I am a postdoctoral researcher in the project The Mathematical Analysis of Extremal Black Holes and Gravitational Radiation, under Professor Dejan Gajic at the University of Leipzig. The research questions which are of interest to me lie in the intersection of partial differential equations and mathematical general relativity. My particular focus is geometric PDEs in the context of asymptotically Anti-de Sitter black hole spacetimes. 

I completed a PhD in the Pure Analysis and PDEs section of the Department of Mathematics at Imperial College London during 2020-2024, under the supervision of  Dr Martin Taylor and Professor Gustav Holzegel. I spent the final year of my PhD study at the University of Münster, in the working group of Professor Holzegel. My thesis was titled A scattering construction for nonlinear waves on Kerr-Anti-de Sitter spacetimes, and contained a version of my paper of the same title (see Publications).

In my undergraduate studies at the University of Edinburgh (2015-2020), I completed two theses in general relativity, under supervision of Dr Pieter Blue and Dr Joan Simón. The first was titled Formation of singularities in general relativity, and the second Violations of topological censorship in general relativity. During my time at the University of Edinburgh, I received the Edinburgh Award for my contributions to the Mathematics Outreach Team. This included demonstrating at the Edinburgh International Science Festival three years in a row and delivering a Royal Institution masterclass for high-school students titled Geometry of the Universe. I graduated with a first class MMath (Hons) integrated Masters degree in 2020.

In the months between finishing my Masters degree and beginning my PhD, I collaborated on a research project focused on classroom practices in university-level mathematics as a Summer Research Assistant at the University of Edinburgh. This resulted in my coauthoring of the paper Lecturers' use of questions in undergraduate mathematics lectures, which is published in The Journal of Mathematical Behaviour (see Publications).

Over the summer of 2019, I carried out a research project titled Blow-up results on the Schwarzschild black hole interior region as part of the Mary Lister McCammon Research Fellowship. This work was supervised by Professor Gustav Holzegel and Dr Thomas Johnson.
