About me
I am a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Sussex. I joined Sussex in 2019. Prior to that, I was a postdoc at Buenos Aires and then at Bath. I did my PhD in Paris under the supervision of Nicolas Broutin and Thomas Duquesne.
My university profile has information on my teaching and admin activities. My research is partly supported by an EPSRC New Investigator grant (2023-2025). Since 2024, I serve on the editorial board of the Applied Probability Trust.
