I am a John Nesbit Fellow in pure mathematics at the School of Mathematics and Physics, University of Queensland. I received my PhD in 2020 from the University of Sydney, under the supervision of Professor Gus Lehrer and Professor Ruibin Zhang.
Currently, I am working with Mark Gould, Artem Pulemotov, and Jorgen Rasmussen.
I am interested in representation theory of Lie (super)algebras, Lie supergroups, quantum (super)groups, hyperplane arrangements, and Milnor fibres.
I organise the Pure Maths Seminar with Ole Warnaar and Ramiro Lafuente. Please contact me if you would like to give a talk or suggest a speaker.
