I am a Lecturer in Pure Mathematics at the Department of Mathematical Sciences of the University of Essex. My research is on algebraic and complex geometry, with focus on birational geometry of varieties of Fano type, moduli spaces and computational algebraic geometry.

You can see more info about me or my research, have a look at my publications and some computer code I’ve written.

My research is supported by EPSRC grant EP/V055399/1. This includes support for an 18-months Senior Research Officer (postdoc), a position we are currently advertising. If you are an algebraic geometer with research interests in Fano varieties, moduli of varieties, K-stability or the existence of canonical metrics (such as Kähler-Einstein metrics), please do apply. The start date is negotiable (but roughly around September 2022). Feel free to write to me if you have any questions.

I currently supervise PhD student Theo Papazachariou. I am always interested in hearing from potential PhD students and postdocs, so feel free to contact me directly.

I am a co-organiser and host of ZAG (Zoom Algebraic Geometry) seminar, the first online worldwide regular seminar on algebraic geometry and the seminar organiser for MESS, the Mathematics at Essex Seminar Series.
