Short-ish bio

I am from Mauritius (it's a tiny island in the Indian Ocean, that's where the dodo lived!). I did my primary and secondary education there itself.

In 2012 I moved to the UK to pursue my undergraduate studies at UCL, funded by a scholarship from the Government of Mauritius.

In 2016 I started my PhD in Mathematics at UCL under the joint supervision of Prof. Jason Lotay (who was then at UCL and is now at Oxford University) and  Prof. Simon Salamon (KCL). During this time I was also part of the London School of Geometry and Number theory (an EPSRC funded Centre for Doctoral training).

In 2020 I successfully defended my PhD thesis (my examiners were Lorenzo Foscolo (UCL) and Andrew Dancer (Oxford)). I was due to start a postdoc position with Chengjian Yao at ShanghaiTech University, but unfortunately due to the Covid pandemic I was unable to travel to start the job. Eventually I forwent the position and I started a postdoc with Henrique Sá Earp at Unicamp in 2021. 

In 2024 I will be starting a postdoc at the University of Turin working with Luigi Vezzoni.

Languages

Aside from English, I am fluent in French, Hindi and Mauritian Creole. I can also speak a little bit of Brazilian Portuguese!
