As part of my Mathematics Masters at Imperial College London, my thesis focused on finding soliton solutions to the Dirac equation in the presence of abelian BPS monopoles using the Nahm transform. I also undertook a project in which I attempted to find solitary waves in an inviscid fluid between two horizontal plates with an electric field passed between. At OIST, as part of the Shocks, Solitons and Turbulence unit, my thesis is focused on continuous mathematical models of mass transportation in biological networks, including trees, root systems and slime mold. In my spare time I enjoy reading, playing and watching football, and in general keeping active.

My role is to support the Unit's Research in matters relating to mechanical and electronic design. I am currently focused on developing tree sensors for forest dynamics research. My background is the design of robotics systems. I completed my bachelor's and master's in robotic engineering and have worked with space and nuclear robotic systems. Outside of work, I have fun with 3D printing, DIY projects and enjoy walking around Okinawa.

As a member of the S2T unit, I am studying ocean-atmosphere and land-atmosphere energy exchanges using theoretical models and high-performance numerical simulations supported by data analysis of in-situ observations. My background is in engineering having obtained an M.Eng with a specialisation in fluid mechanics from ENSEEIHT. I later completed an MSc. in Mechanical Engineering at Imperial College London (ICL) where I then joined Emile Touber's research group as a PhD student. I received my PhD from ICL for work focusing on energy exchanges in compressible flows near a phase change involving numerical simulations performed using the computational framework dNami.
