Hello! I'm a Second Year PhD Student at Royal Holloway. My supervisor is Professor Gutin.
Before this I obtained a BA and CASM in Mathematics at Peterhouse, University of Cambridge
This will form my academic website. For my personal website, see here.
I have an Erdos number bounded above by 3 (having been a coauthor with Gregory Gutin, who has written a paper with Noga Alon, who as written a paper with Erdos). Unfortunately, I also have an Erdos-Bacon bounded below by infinity.

On 2nd June 2010, I gave a talk at the Department Postgraduate Colloquium: "Unit-Conflict-Free Max-Sat Paramaterized Above Expectation". You can view the slides, or look at the paper which contains the results above.
