I'm a PhD student in geometric analysis at the ANU. My research focuses on geometric heat flows, particularly harmonic map heat flow and similar second-order equations.

Favourite inequality: Peter-Paul.
Differential Geometry tip: switch notations at least twice per line.
Fatal flaw: Semicolon addiction.
