I am originally from Australia. After doing a BA at Melbourne University I began grad school in the US at Brandeis University. Then after spending a Semester on exchange at University of Regensburg, I subsequently completed a Masters at the LMU in Munich and went on to do a PhD there too. After that I was a postdoc at the University of Augsburg and spent the academic year 2011-12 at the MPIM Bonn. After my time in Augsburg I returned to Munich in October 2014 and then in June 2017 started as a Senior Lecturer at Monash in Melbourne. In March 2020 I returned to Regensburg. In the Winter Term 24/45 I was a Substitute Professor at LMU Munich and recently I received a Heisenberg Grant and have moved to the Leibniz University in Hannover as of September 2025.
I am interested in the topology of manifolds, geometric structures upon them, whether they be contact, symplectic or integrable (i.e. foliations) as well as dynamical aspects of group actions and flows. I am funded via the Heisenberg Programme of the DFG.
