Background

I came to Oxford in 2004, studying for an undergraduate Masters in Mathematics at Trinity College. After graduating in 2008, I spent two years working in the Operational Research team within the commercial division of Tui Travel UK & Ireland. I returned to Oxford, and to Trinity, in 2010 to begin my DPhil (i.e. PhD) studies with the LSI Doctoral Training Centre funded by an EPSRC scholarship. After completing the first year's taught program, in October 2011 I began to study for my DPhil thesis, being supervised by Antonis Papachristodoulou in the SySOS group in the Department of Engineering Science.

Interests

  • Layered architecture of complex systems
  • Mathematical and Systems Biology
  • Synthetic Biology
  • Networked, multi-scale models of dynamical systems
  • Structured model reduction and error propagation

Additionally, past projects have been in:

My work as an OR consultant at Tui centred on:

  • Yield/revenue management (specifically, using price-sensitive optimization)
  • Search algorithms
