I am a Research Fellow in the Department of Materials at Imperial College London.  I completed my DPhil in Inorganic Chemistry with Prof. Andrew Goodwin at the University of Oxford in 2021, working on finding structural analogues of complex magnetic phases. After my DPhil, I began a postdoc in the Department of Chemistry at Imperial College London with Prof. Kim Jelfs and developed coarse-grained methodology for predicting the crystalline phase behaviour of molecular materials, in particular porous molecular materials. In September 2024 I moved to the Department of Materials as an Eric and Wendy Schmidt AI Postdoctoral Research Fellow.

My research focuses on developing simple models to improve our understanding of the structural phase behaviour of materials. These simple models can create data quickly and at minimal computational cost, making it possible to generate large amounts of data. By manipulating the parameters of the models, we can determine how changing the chemical features of molecules affects their solid-state structure, informing design rules for targeted crystal structures. 

Using coarse-grained models, I work on the structural prediction of a wide range of molecular materials, with a central focus of porous materials and organic electronic devices. For more information please see the Research page.
