About Me
I am an applied mathematician currently working as a Research Associate in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. In July 2025, I will begin a position as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. My research focuses on solving physically motivated problems using applied mathematics techniques, particularly asymptotic, numerical, and complex analysis. I am especially interested in applications to fluid dynamics, solid mechanics, and mathematical biology.
My current postdoctoral research at UW–Madison concerns the interaction of anisotropic fluids with soft matter, in collaboration with Prof. Saverio Spagnolie. Before joining UW–Madison, I completed my undergraduate degree (MMath) and DPhil in the Oxford Centre of Industrial and Applied Mathematics at the Mathematical Institute, University of Oxford. My doctoral research, supervised by Prof. Dominic Vella, explored the mechanics of thin elastic materials and their interaction with soft matter. Further information on my work and publications can be found here.
I will be teaching during the Fall 2025 and Spring 2026 semesters at UNC–Chapel Hill (subjects to be announced). My previous teaching resources are available here.
