Personal profile

Biography

I graduated with an MMath from the University of Sheffield in 2019. I then completed my PhD in mathematics (numerical analysis) at the University of Bath in 2025. My thesis, titled Structure-preserving Electrokinetics, focused on the design of finite element methods which respect properties of the governing equations at the discrete level, with applications in problems involving charge transport. I joined the Mathematics-driven Innovation Centre at Heriot-Watt University in February 2025.
