I'm an incoming Assistant Professor in Computer Science at the University of Colorado, Boulder. Until August 2024, I am a research fellow at the Center for Computational Mathematics within the Flatiron Insitute, where I work in the numerical analysis group led by Alex Barnett. My research blends scientific computing with numerical analysis and computational physics, and is guided by physics and engineering applications. My work includes developing high-order accurate, efficient numerical methods for challenging ordinary and partial differential equations (ODEs and PDEs), and inference of early-universe physics.
Previously I've studied at the University of Cambridge, UK, where I earned my PhD in cosmology while being advised by Anthony Lasenby, Mike Hobson, and Will Handley. Before then, I did an MSci + BA in physics.

I'm passionate about bird conservation, birdwatching, and photography. I volunteer for the NYC Audubon Society in the Project Safe Flight collision monitoring project. This involves collecting data on birds that collided with windows in the city during migration season, and aims to use this to understand collision patterns and causes, as well as in advocacy work for bird-friendly building design.
I rowed for my college team at uni, enjoy bouldering, hiking, and playing boardgames/RPGs.
