I am a PDRA in the Fusion Plasma Theory group, working jointly with Prof. Alexander Schekochihin and Prof. Michael Barnes. My research currently focuses on electromagnetic, electron temperature gradient driven turbulence in fusion (tokamak) plasmas. I am also interested in the phase-space dynamics of kinetically modeled plasmas.
I completed both my DPhil in Theoretical Physics and my undergraduate MMathPhys at Oxford University. I have kept myself involved in undergraduate teaching, including general Teaching Assistant work, teaching portions of the Kinetic Theory course, as well as holding tutorials and classes for third year students taking Fluid Dynamics and General Relativity.
