About

I am a Postdoctoral Researcher at École Polytechnique, Paris, working on the project Stochastic and Deterministic Analysis of Irregular Models. More specifically I am working on particle approximations to non-linear Fokker-Planck partial differential equations (PDEs).

In October 2025 I finished my PhD in the Mathematics of Random Systems CDT at the University of Oxford under the supervision of Prof. Benjamin Fehrman and Prof. Benjamin Hambly. My thesis title was "Well-posedness and fluctuations of the Dean--Kawasaki equation with coloured noise on bounded domains", which broadly falls under the topics of conservative stochastic PDEs and nonequilibrium statistical mechanics.
