I am a Computer Science PhD student in the Cambridge Logical Structures Hub (CLASH). My supervisor is Jamie Vicary.

My research interests are focused around type theoretic approaches to higher category theory. Within this very broad area, I’m particularly interested in graphical calculi for higher categories.

A good example of a project I am proud to have worked on is homotopy.io. It is a proof assistant which allows one to do constructions in synthetic homotopy theory entirely through a graphical calculus for finitely-presented semistrict globular n-categories. I have contributed to the implementation of the software, and I’m currently working on new foundations for the tool, with the aim of increasing its expressive power.
