Until October 2020 I was a PhD student at Warwick, supervised by Brian Bowditch and Saul Schleimer. My research interest lie in geometric group theory, hyperbolic geometry and low-dimensional topology. Specifically, I am thinking about the pants graph of the five holed sphere and the topology of its Gromov boundary.

I used to organise the GATEWAY seminar, but I've passed the baton to Marco Barberis and Solly Coles. Contact them if you would like to propose a talk or a speaker!

Outreach

I am a member of SAMI Charity and was teaching volunteer at their Maths Camps in Kenya (August 2018) and Ghana (August 2019). Talk to me if you want to know more!

Past

I completed my master degree at the University of Bonn, where I wrote my thesis with Harry Baik on sticky and slippery laminations of the circle. Before that I did my bachelor degree at the University of Amsterdam. My bachelor project, on the topic of Sullivan's No Wandering Domain Theorem, was supervised by Han Peters.
