Summary
I am a third year PhD student of Dr Martin Taylor and Professor Gustav Holzegel in the Pure Analysis and PDEs section. My research is in the field of Mathematical Relativity, with a focus on scattering constructions for nonlinear wave equations on spacetimes with negative cosmological constant.
This academic year, I am a graduate teaching assistant on the Analysis 1 (Autumn 2022) and Calculus and Applications (Spring 2023) modules. In my role as a Confront Educational Inequality Mentor, I am currently supervising a sixth-form student with the aim of them producing a scientific poster. I am a co-organiser of the Junior Analysis Seminar.
In my undergraduate studies at the University of Edinburgh (2015-2020), I completed two theses in general relativity, under supervision of Dr Pieter Blue and Dr Joan Simón. The first was titled Formation of singularities in general relativity, and the second Violations of topological censorship in general relativity. I received the Edinburgh Award for my contributions to the Mathematics Outreach Team. This included demonstrating at the Edinburgh International Science Festival three years in a row and delivering a Royal Institution masterclass for high-school students titled Geometry of the Universe. I graduated with MMath (Hons) in 2020.
Over the summer of 2019, I carried out a research project titled Blow-up results on the Schwarzschild black hole interior region as part of the Mary Lister McCammon Research Fellowship. This work was supervised by Professor Gustav Holzegel and Dr Thomas Johnson.
