About Me

I received my PhD in Applied Mathematics from the University of Limerick in January 2012. While there, I was a member of the Stochastic Dynamics and Complex Systems research group and an associate member of the Mathematics Applications Consortium for Science and Industry.

Currently, I am a posdoctoral research fellow at the Hamilton Institute, National University of Ireland, Maynooth. I work on the application of matrix and graph theory to exascale computing. This work is co-funded by the Irish Research Council and IBM Research Ireland under the Enterprise Partnership Scheme.

Here's my full resume.
