I am currently a Leverhulme Early Career Fellow at the University of Sheffield, where I work in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics with Prof. Jonathan Potts. My research sits at the intersection of partial differential equations, mathematical biology, and spatial ecology, with a particular focus on nonlocal movement models, habitat fragmentation, and population dynamics.

Before coming to Sheffield, I spent two years at the University of Oxford as an affiliate researcher supported by an NSERC Postdoctoral Fellowship, where I worked with Prof. José Carrillo at the Mathematical Institute. My work there focused on nonlocal aggregation-diffusion equations, including questions of well-posedness, bifurcation, stability, and parameter recovery.

I completed my PhD in Mathematics at the University of Alberta in 2023 under the supervision of Prof. Hao Wang. During that time, I was part of the ILMEE research group, whose interests span a wide range of topics in mathematical biology and ecology, including animal movement, habitat destruction and biodiversity, microbiology, ecological stoichiometry, and infectious disease modelling. Before that, I completed my BSc at Cape Breton University and an MSc at McMaster University.

More broadly, I am interested in combining rigorous analysis, numerical methods, and biological motivation to better understand how movement, interaction, and environmental structure shape spatial population behaviour. I enjoy working in the space between theory and application, especially where analytical questions connect naturally to ecological interpretation.

Outside of mathematics, I enjoy making and recording music, playing guitar and other instruments, and spending time outdoors. I especially like hiking, kayaking, climbing, and generally finding excuses to be outside, and I also have two cats who are usually convinced they should be involved in whatever I am doing.
