Background
I am an EPSRC Doctoral Prize Fellow in the School of Computing at Newcastle University. I am researching a project titled “Reliable AI-Enabled Design of Cyber-Physical Systems” working closely with Dr Abolfazl Lavaei.
My PhD thesis was “Model-Based and Data-Driven Formal Synthesis of Power Systems” supervised by Dr Sadegh Soudjani, funded by an EPSRC Studentship (EP/R51309X/1). My research focused on the intersection of formal methods in computer science and control theory, applied to power system primary frequency regulation.
In 2019, I completed an integrated Masters degree in Computer Science (Security and Resilience) with 1st Class Honours also at Newcastle University. For the project and dissertation, I received 92%.
I have contributed to the international academic community with published works, conference presentations, program committee memberships, and conference and journal paper reviews.
At Newcastle University, I have been the chair of AMBER, given multiple internal research presentations, and assisted widely by teaching as a demonstrator and with marking. I have experience with supervising PhD, MSc and BSc student projects. Alongside these, I have previously led the team for research communication and dissemination for the HyCoDeV Lab.
