Senior Lecturer And Staff Tutor In Mathematics And Statistics
Further infomration about my work is on this Open University page:

My research interests straddle Logic and Combinatorics. In particular I have worked with automorphism groups, the Small index property and transitivity properties all with respect to infinite designs.
I have also worked on gender and STEM research projects.
As well as working on entry level modules I make materials for the university's open learning platform, Open Learn.
My OpenLearn articles are available on my OpenLearn Porfile.
In 2018 I became CEO of MathsWorldUK, a registered charity which aims to establish the UK's first interactive Mathematics Discovery Centre. The Centre will show that maths is to be enjoyed and explored by everyone and that it is at the cutting edge of innovation in most sectors. All information is at MathsWorldUK's website
So that people could get their hands on some real problem solving and fun puzzles I created the app Perplex with the UKMT. The puzzle can be played online or via an app.
In 2015 some members of the Maths and Statistics dept entered the BBC game show Beat the Brain. Unfortunately there is no video record of this historic moment!
