Currently I am a postdoc at University of Copenhagen (KU), in the Copenhagen Centre for Geometry and Topology (GeoTop), mentored by Prof. Niels Martin Møller. Prior to that I completed my PhD at Queen Mary University of London (QMUL), under the supervision of Dr Huy The Nguyen.
My research interests lie in geometric analysis, in particular geometric flows, such as (high codimension) mean curvature flow and singularity formation.
From October 2024, Alex Mramor and I are organising the Geometry seminar at University of Copenhagen.
