Background

Whilst a PhD student at UCL, I've been a senior postgraduate teaching instructor in Computing for Mathematical Physics within the Physics department. In the Mathematics department I've been a demonstrator for modules including General Relativity, Advanced Linear Algebra and Mathematics for Physics and Astronomy.

I previously completed a BSc in Theoretical Physics (2017) followed by an MSc in Gravity, Particles and Fields (2018) at the University of Nottingham.
