I completed a Bachelor of Science (Advanced Mathematics) Honours in 2016 and am currently a PhD student in the School of Mathematics and Statistics studying under Associate Professor James Parkinson.
My current research interests are broadly in algebraic combinatorics and group theory (particularly Coxeter groups). I also have an interest in the connections between group theory and automata theory. I enjoy teaching and the pedagogy of mathematics.
In semester 1 2020, I am tutoring MATH1111 Introduction to Calculus and MATH2022 Linear and Abstract Algebra. I am also teaching revision workshops for MATH1011 Applications of Calculus and MATH1111.
In 2020 summer intensive I taught MATH1002 Linear Algebra.
