Research
I am a PhD student researching black holes and gravity.
My current work involves the identification of quasinormal modes (QNMs) and other ringdown features in numerical relativity waveforms obtained via Cauchy-characteristic evolution, specifically those produced by the Simulating eXtreme Spacetimes collaboration. Previously, I investigated the spatial structure of both first- and second-order QNMs, developing a numerical technique to analyse their angular properties. More recently, I have been working on a Bayesian framework for detecting QNMs and late-time power-law tails in numerical relativity waveforms. More broadly I am interested in understanding black holes, gravity, cosmology, fundamental physics, and the philosophy of science.
I also take part in a variety of public engagement activities, including writing scripts, producing content, and giving talks for non-specialist audiences. More information is available on my personal website.
