I'm a PhD student at Reading. I'm now looking at unlikely intersections in Shimura varieties.

Project: Torsor obstructions to rational points on varieties over global function fields
Supervisor: Dr Margherita Pagano

These are short notes I've written to clarify things (mainly for myself but I hope they are helpful/interesting to you too).

June–August 2023: Proofread Dr Siri Chongchitnan's Exploring University Mathematics with Python, published by Springer later that year
July 2020: Gave 12 online two-hour lectures on university-level linear algebra to Year 9 students during the pandemic
