I am a mathematics researcher currently visiting the University of Southampton. My main interest is in acylindrical actions on trees (acylindrical arboreality) and their links to quasi-convex splittings of hyperbolic groups, along with other properties of groups with negative or non-positive curvature.
I am also increasingly interested in group cohomology and profinite groups, and in particular in questions of separable cohomology of groups (also known as goodness in the sense of Serre).
I completed my PhD at the UNiversity of Cambridge, supervised by Dr Jack Button, on the topic of acylindrical actions of groups on trees. A link to my thesis can be found below. Before this, I completed my MMath at the University of Warwick supervised by Dr Robert Kropholler, with a project on Random group theory and property FA.
