Welcome to my website! I am a PhD student at STOR-i in Lancaster University<\/a>. Please see my STOR-i page<\/a> for more information about the program. My project is titled ‘Optimal Discrete Search with a Map’ and is supervised by Prof Kevin Glazebrook<\/a> and Dr Robert Shone<\/a>. The project is in partnership with the Naval Postgraduate School<\/a> in California. This website will be used to showcase some of the work I do over the next few years. If you would like to get in contact with me please visit my contact me<\/a> page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I graduated from the University of Exeter<\/a> in the summer of 2019 with a Master\u2019s degree in mathematics. During my time there I studied a range of topics in pure mathematics in addition to a few modules in more applied areas such as stochastic processes and graph theory. While completing my Master\u2019s dissertation on p-adic analysis I began to investigate opportunities in post graduate research. I subsequently enrolled on the STOR-i program and have completed the first year graduating with a Maters of Research in Operational Research and Statistics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the summer of 2018 I completed a 9 week research placement at the Centre for Ecology and Hydrology<\/a> in association with the University of Reading<\/a> where I was part of a team investigating the effects of snowmelt on flood forecasting models. This experience reaffirmed my desire to pursue a career in research and in particular for the focus of that research to have tangible impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
