I am a mathematician and teacher based in London, currently teaching Maths and Computer Science at a sixth form college. I enjoy applying rigorous mathematical thinking to CS problems and to game design, and I’m passionate about continuous learning across disciplines. Outside of teaching, I am fascinated by psychology, history, literature and arts, and I enjoy exploring how human behavior and culture intersect with technology. I’m always keen to collaborate on interdisciplinary projects that blend analysis, creativity and teaching.
