About me
I am an Associate Professor working in the Mathematics Institute at the University of Warwick.
My main research interests lie in the broad area of Applied Analysis, and my research focuses on both aspects of mathematical modelling and proving theorems about mathematical and computational models. A key application area of interest for me is Materials Science, which naturally leads me to interact with researchers both in other disciplines and outside academia.
