I am a mathematical physics PhD student studying under Prof. Peter Bouwknegt at the Australian National University. I'm studying (infinite-dimensional) representations of (infinite-dimensional) Lie algebras, and their application as a free field approach to logarithmic conformal field theories.

I completed my honours in pure mathematics under Dr. Kumudini Dharmadasa at the University of Tasmania. My research was on representation theory of general topological groups, focusing particularly on intertwining numbers of induced representations of locally compact topological groups with clopen subgroups.

My interests include anything mathematical and I love diversions, puzzles, and mathematical curios as much as anything else. Currently I'm teaching myself a little knot theory, algebraic topology, and K-theory.
