I am a probabilist. I am currently a Reader and Royal Society University Research Fellow at the University of Bath, in the probability group Prob-L@B. From 2018 to 2021 I was a Prize Fellow at the University of Bath. From 2016 to 2018 I was the G H Hardy Junior Research Fellow at New College and the Mathematical Institute at the University of Oxford. From 2013 to 2016 I was a PhD student in the Department of Statistics at the University of Oxford. My supervisor was Alison Etheridge.

I am interested in population genetics models, dual processes, solutions to partial differential equations using probabilistic techniques, branching processes and interacting particle systems.
