Biography
I did my PhD at Imperial College London under the supervision of Richard Thomas. I then stayed on at Imperial for the following nine years, I worked for six years as a Research Fellow (under two different fellowships) then a further three as a Teaching Fellow. In 2017 I was awarded an ERC Consolidator Grant, and moved to UCL as a Lecturer.

Research Summary
I'm interested in the interactions between geometry, algebra and theoretical physics. More technically: I work in algebraic geometry, with lots of homological algebra, homotopy algebra, and topological field theory thrown in. Even more technically: I work on derived categories of coherent sheaves and their various generalizations.
