I am currently a Dennis Sciama Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Institute of Cosmology and Gravitation, University of Portsmouth. My research interests span a broad range of topics in galaxy formation and evolution, particularly during the first billion years of the Universe's history after the big bang. I run and analyse large numerical cosmological simulations, creating mock observations of the real Universe to better understand observations. I also employ a number of machine learning techniques, using these to better interpret and improve the performance of the simulations. See here for more detailed information on my research.
