Welcome to my homepage! I am a Lecturer in Pure Mathematics at The University of Manchester.
Prior to this, I was a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Toronto working with Professor Kumar Murty. I obtained my PhD under the supervision of Professor Samir Siksek at the University of Warwick in 2017.
Here is a simplified career trajectory (so far!) for those that are curious about my journey into Number Theory.
