Teaching & notes

Explaining it is half of understanding it

Mentoring, writing, and the tools I build so that hard ideas stop being gatekept. This page is the informal half of the site.

Mentoring

Mathematical physics, one student at a time

As a Research Associate and mentor at CFRCE since March 2024, I work with selected students on gauge theory, topology and the analysis that sits under both — guiding them through the foundational literature. If you're stuck somewhere in that territory, write to me; I usually have room for one or two.

LIBR — educational platforms with generative AI

I co-develop LIBR, a learning platform that communicates complex academic concepts through gamified frameworks, using a generative-AI history simulator to give academic topics their context. Less summarising, more scaffolding the path a reader actually has to walk.
