I am a visiting PhD student in Applied and Computational Mathematics at the University of Edinburgh. I started the PhD with my supervisor, Dr. Geoffrey M. Vasil, at the University of Sydney. Halfway in, my supervisor got a new job at the University of Edinburgh, and (like Ishmael from Moby-Dick) I followed him halfway across the world.

My research interests span various disciplines, from optimization, computational linguistics, extreme value sampling, and machine learning to numerical analysis, statistical mechanics, and stochastic analysis. However, the main thread that combines them all is creating numerical methods to solve a problem and using analysis to prove the technique works.

I am currently working on spectral approximation of quasicrystals with Dr. Matthew Colbrook.
