Biography
I was born in England and grew up in the small town of
Billericay, in Essex, where I went to school. During the years
1998-2002 I was an
undergraduate student at the
University of Bristol in England, where I also completed my
postgraduate degree under the supervision of Andrey Lazarev during
2002-2005. After spending time at the IHES in Paris and completing a
year long postdoc at the Max-Planck-Institut fur Mathematik in Bonn, I
moved here, to the University of Connecticut, in August 2007.Research
My current research interests involve connections between noncommutative geometry, quantum field theory and the study of moduli spaces of Riemann surfaces. All my papers are available from the arXiv.Papers
