I am a Bye-Fellow in organic and bio-organic chemistry, supervising a range of courses across the undergraduate curriculum. I did my degree in Natural Sciences at the University of Cambridge, after which I continued with my PhD studies at the same place in supramolecular chemistry under the supervision of Professor Christopher Hunter. My special interests in chemistry lie in supramolecular chemistry and physical organic chemistry. I am also the Director of the FitzEd Educational Programmes. Besides teaching at Cambridge, I am a Lecturer (Teaching) in the Department of Chemistry at UCL. I am a member of the UK Chemistry Olympiad Committee, and I mentor students for the International Chemistry Olympiad both nationally and internationally. I am an avid amateur meteorologist.
