My interests are in theoretical soft matter physics, including continuum mechanics, topological physics, and active matter. I am also exploring statistical physics and stochastic thermodynamics. I completed a PhD at the University of Cambridge, working on mathematical models that capture the elastic behaviour of soft solids, covering three classes of solid: elastomers, active solids and topological metamaterials.
