Welcome to my homepage! I am a Lecturer in the Statistical Laboratory in the DPMMS at the University of Cambridge. (If you don't know what this means, this is roughly the equivalent of a tenured assistant professorship). I am also a Fellow of King's College. If you've always wanted to know what is the difference between the university and the colleges, click here.
What I do
I am interested in many aspects of probability theory. I enjoy the rich interplay with other fields such as analysis, geometry or combinatorics. I am particularly interested in coalescing processes, and have used these ideas to study questions related to mixing times of random walks, random graphs, percolation, Brownian motion, etc. Often the motivations for studying these questions come from population genetics and statistical physics.
