About me

I’m a doctoral student in mathematics at the University of Oxford under the supervision of Heather Harrington and Ulrike Tillmann. My research interests are in applied topology, geometry, and algebra. I was previously a research assistant working on Bayesian high-dimensional clustering under the supervision of Maria De Iorio at the National University of Singapore.

Here is my CV.

When I’m not doing math, I spend time doing things related to music or fitness (XOR, at least thus far).
