Biographical Sketch

In 2000 I obtained an MA/MEng degree in Electrical and Information Sciences from the University of Cambridge, U.K., as a member of Robinson College. In 2005 I completed a PhD in Control and Dynamical Systems at the California Institute of Technology, with a PhD Minor in Aeronautics. My thesis was on the "Scalable Analysis of Nonlinear Systems Using Convex Optimization" and was under the supervision of Professor John C. Doyle. After a short David Crighton Fellowship at the University of Cambridge and a postdoctoral fellowship at the California Institute of Technology, I joined the Department of Engineering Science at the University of Oxford in January 2006, where I am now a University Lecturer in Engineering Science (Control Engineering) and an Official Tutorial Fellow at Worcester College. I serve regularly on Technical Programme Committees for conferences, and I am associate editor for Automatica.

Research Interests
