Research: My research establishes links between algebraic geometry and representation theory using techniques from geometric invariant theory, birational geometry, quiver representations, noncommutative algebras and derived categories. More recently, I've been interested in several topics, including Hilbert schemes of points, symplectic resolutions, derived categories and Cox rings.

My research was supported by EPSRC (2009-2012 and 2013-2016) and by the Leverhulme Trust (2021-25).

The Bath Geometry Seminar.


Teaching: In 2025/26, I teach Algebraic curves.
