About me

I am the Meggitt Fellow and Director of Studies in Mathematics at Emmanuel College, Cambridge. I am also a member of the Department of Pure Mathematics and Mathematical Statistics (DPMMS) at the University of Cambridge.

I completed my DPhil (PhD) in July 2024 at the Mathematical Institute, University of Oxford under the supervision of Martin Bridson and Dawid Kielak. Prior to this I was an undergraduate at the University of Bristol where I wrote my master's thesis under the supervision of Mark Hagen.

My research

My research is in the areas of Geometric Group Theory and Low-Dimensional Topology. I'm particularly interested in free-by-cyclic groups and other groups which fibre algebraically. My research combines traditional tools from geometric group theory, such as JSJ-decompositions and train track theory, with homological methods.

I maintain a webpage on open problems in free-by-cyclic groups created as part of the AIM workshop on rigidity in free-by-cyclic groups. Get in touch if you have any comments or suggestions!
