Hi! I am a 2nd year PhD student interested in geometric measure theory under the supervision of Dr David Bate.
Research Interests
Metric currents, metric geometry, rectifiability & tangents, geometric measure theory.
Background
I completed a BSc in Mathematics at the University of Sussex in 2022 followed by an MSc in Mathematics at the University of Warwick in 2023. My BSc project was titled "Steiner Symmetrisation & The Isoperimetric Inequality" and was supervised by Dr Filippo Cagnetti and my MSc dissertation "Characterizing 1-rectifiability via connected tangents" was supervised by Dr David Bate which can be found as a preprint here.
