About Me
I am a Royal
Society University Research Fellow working in the Waves
Group at the Department of Applied Mathematics and
Theoretical Physics (DAMTP), part of the University of Cambridge. I
am also a fellow of Gonville & Caius
College, where I was a Junior Research Fellow, and a
member of Pembroke
College, where I did my undergraduate, masters and PhD
degrees.
I am currently working on mathematical models used to
model acoustic linings in aircraft engine intakes. For
further details, see my research
page.
I was a Junior Research Fellow at Gonville & Caius
College from 2007–2011. I obtained my PhD from the
University of Cambridge in November 2007. My PhD supervisor
was Prof. Nigel Peake. The main topic of my thesis was the
propagation of disturbances in curved ducts — for
example, sound in military aircraft engine intakes. I also
worked on the stability and scattering of sound in straight
ducts by the duct boundary conditions — for example,
the presence of an acoustic lining. I also have a first
class degree
in Mathematics (MA cantab) and a Master
of Mathematics (formerly known as Part III) with
distinction, both from the University of Cambridge.
Research Opportunities
I am currently looking to take on 1 or 2 PhD students and
one postdoc. For further details, please see my research opportunities page.

Other publications
I am the current administrator of the mechanics group
workstation cluster, talisman.
I spent ten weeks at the California Institute of
Technology (Caltech)
on a Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) placement over
the summer of 2003. Details of my project can be found here.
