About

After graduating with a BSc in Applied Physics, I obtained my PhD from Northumbria University in 2008 for work on dynamical systems theory with applications in the areas of control and synchronised chaotic systems. I then trained as a teacher in the lifelong learning sector and have since been involved in FE/HE provision in public and private institutions, eventually joining Sheffield Hallam University's mathematics group in 2015. Through my teaching experience in engineering, physics and mathematics, I have developed an interest in the pedagogical issues surrounding mathematics as taught to students of science and engineering.

Outside of my professional life, I spend time on long-distance walks across the British fells, playing for my local badminton club in the Sheffield Badminton League and playing live shows as part of a heavy metal band.
