  During my time at Milkalyser I've been responsible for the lab validation and field testing of our progesterone analysis technology. As part of this, I've been lucky enough to learn new skills in a variety of areas, from workshop mechanics to biochemistry.

  The main topic of my research has been the analysis of the vast amounts of data recorded by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. Early in my PhD, I performed studies of detector performance, and was responsible for compiling a technical document of my own and others' research. Since then, I have worked on the development of a search for evidence of microscopic black holes in high-energy particle collisions. As part of a small analysis team, we brought this to completion in a journal paper. More recently, I have been working on a novel strategy for the detection of new physics processes. By testing simple symmetries of physics as we understand it, we can avoid the need for uncertain and costly simulation used by many searches. Show less

• Undergraduate supervisor and lab demonstrator

  • Oct 2014 - Mar 2018

  Whilst at Cambridge I've supervised the third-year undergraduate course in Particle and Nuclear Physics. I've demonstrated undergraduate lab sessions in computing - Introduction to C++ (second year) and Computational Physics (third year) - and in bubble chamber measurements.

  Options in Particle Physics and Theoretical Physics Project: Triggers for rare event searches. During my final year I spent a term studying trigger algorithms for a cryogenic bolometer (used in direct searches for Dark Matter). I developed a new algorithm for extracting information from the noisy sensor response, correcting for temperature drift and filtering electrical noise. A crash course in signal processing! My project was awarded a departmental prize. Options in Particle Physics and Theoretical Physics Project: Triggers for rare event searches.

• Work on family farm

  • Jan 2000 - Oct 2010

  I grew up on a family-owned dairy farm in West Wales. I've been routinely involved in the farm until leaving for university, and then outside of term-time. It was my experiments in digitising farm records, farm maintenance and (very amateur) milking machine electronics that first got me interested in technology and computing.
