Current Executive Team

I am a PhD student in my third year of the program, working under the supervision of Professor Simon Henry. I did my bachelor’s at McGill, and my master’s was in fractal geometry at the University of Waterloo. Currently, I’m doing research in mathematical logic and working with proof assistants. Outside of school and work, I like to play board games and go hiking in the Eastern Townships with my family! 

I am a 2nd year Master's student at the University of Ottawa working in the area of string diagrams and categorification. My current project involves using category theory to establish a connection between representation theory and the problem of colouring planar graphs. In my free time I enjoy biking, doing karate classes, and playing games like Pandemic and DDR.

I am currently a second year MSc student studying biostatics. I completed my undergrad at uOttawa in May 2022, and hope to complete the MSc by May 2024! My research interests lie within applied biostatistics, particularly pediatric health care. When I'm not working on my research or studying for courses, I enjoy reading, playing volleyball and discovering cafés throughout Ottawa.

My name is Khalil Besrour. I am a third year PhD student doing research in number theory. I am also an international student from Tunisia. I enjoy discussing mathematics and teaching it. I firmly believed that the essence of Mathematics is in the process of sharing our understanding and intuition about the multitude of mathematical objects one can encounter. As VP Equity and Student life, I aim to make the different aspects of university life accessible to every single person no matter their identity or background.
