Hi, welcome to my website! I’m a first year PhD student at Lancaster University’s Statistics and Operational Research with industry (STOR-i) CDT. Before joining STOR-i, I completed an MSci in Financial Mathematics also at Lancaster.

My PhD project is titled “Stochastic Optimisation Approaches to the Storage Location Assignment Problem”. In it, I am working alongside Tesco to create models for warehouse optimisation, with an emphasis on scalability and good modelling practices. I talk about this in my post My PhD Project.

The aim of the website is to showcase the work I have been involved in during my PhD. My posts include conferences, papers and training courses, and can be found here.
