I am developing analytical models and simulations of cell mechanics, from the cytoskeletal to tissue scales. In particular, I am studying how mechanical and geometric properties of the tissue and its environment affects efficient wound healing.Skills developed:- Using PDEs to model tissue scale dynamics, solved analytically or numerically in C or Python- Developing cell-resolution simulations for collective cell migration- Automating simulation and data analysis with Bash and Python- Regularly presenting on my own research or recent papersTalks given:- Physical Biology Circle Meeting, 2017- APS March Meeting, 2018

I worked on a number of non-life insurance audits and market statistics projects while at PwC.- Used general insurance reserving methods, the Chain Ladder and Bornhuetter Ferguson, to evaluate client reserves.- Used VBA to automate manual processes such as importing data and running analysis.- Analysed Lloyd’s syndicate returns to generate market views that fed into internal audits and press releases.- Adapted cash flow models to use Monte Carlo simulations.- Completed training on statistics, machine learning, and programming in R and Python.- Actuarial exams passed: CT1, CT2
