I am a DPhil student in the first cohort of Intelligent Earth CDT Students! I have a background in Mathematics and Earth Sciences, and a strong interest in the polar regions. During my Master's, I worked on using statistical and machine learning methods applied to Antarctic sea ice concentration, and was lucky enough to conduct glaciology fieldwork in Kangerlussuaq, West Greenland. I have completed internships at the British Antarctic Survey in the Ice Dynamics and Paleoclimate Team, and a NERC SCENARIO DTP funded position in mathematical modelling for evolutionary biology at Reading University.
I am focusing my DPhil on Antarctic ice shelf stability with Professor Laura Stevens in the Department of Earth Sciences and Professor Andrew Markham in the Department of Computer Science. I highly encourage any students with interests in the cryosphere to apply for Intelligent Earth, as the applications of machine learning to glaciology are vast and present many opportunities and challenges.
Feel free to contact me with any cryosphere/climate science outreach or questions:
