Who am I?

Good question. In short, I am a Divisional Fellow at Lawrence Berkeley Lab, spending half my week in the BCTP and the other half at LBNL. Before this, from 2021 till 2023 I was a faculty member in the department of theoretical physics at CERN. I grew up in Melbourne, Australia, and completed my B.Sc. and LL.B. at Melbourne University. I then finished my M.Sc. in Physics at the same institution, working under the supervision of Ray Volkas and Elisabetta Barberio. Afterwards, I headed to MIT and obtained my Ph.D. with Tracy Slatyer focussing on indirect detection. I then moved to the West Coast as a Miller Fellow at UC Berkeley.
