About me

I am currently a Phd student at the University of Birmingham, working under the supervision of Eoin Long. Prior to that, I was an undergraduate student at the University of Oxford between 2016 and 2020. My passion for Combinatorics, however, started long before that, as I was engaging in math competitions and olympiads since my early school years. For more information, here is my CV.

My research interests lie in extremal and probabilistic combinatorics, with a particular focus on Ramsey problems.
