I'm a Royal Society University Research Fellow and proleptic lecturer interested in conducting precision measurements of fundamental quantities and new physics searches using table-top experiments.

Some of my past and present research interests include:

Measuring the size of the electron's electric dipole moment using ytterbium fluoride molecules

Simulating the behaviour of complex multi-level molecular systems when they interact with many electromagnetic fields. This helps us understand how to apply techniques like optical pumping, laser cooling and magneto-optical trapping to molecular systems.

Testing CPT symmetry by comparing the properties of protons and antiprotons

Searching for dark matter using superconducting LC circuits

Using Penning traps and microwave cavities to to detect dark matter
