About

I am a PhD student in the ACiD (Algorithms and Complexity in Durham) group supervised by Dr Barnaby Martin and Professor Daniel Paulusma .

My primary research interest lies in graph theory, particularly from a structural and algorithmic perspective, considering the impact of structural restrictions on the computational complexity of graph problems.

Education

PhD, Computer Science, Durham University, October 2023-present

Graph Problems with Restricted Inputs; supervised by Dr Barnaby Martin and Professor Daniel Paulusma.

BSc, Computer Science, Durham University, September 2020-June 2023

First class degree; Final year project concerned Optimal and Delay Robust Paths in Temporal Graphs supervised by Dr Eleni Akrida.
