Further details:
I am a postdoctoral research assistant working with Neave O'Clery as part of the PEAK urban interdisciplinary project. I am quite new to (and excited to be) working in social/economic networks, as my PhD work is more concerned with the modeling of condensed matter physics (I am working on a paper "Rigidity percolation in random rod packings" that should be submitted soon...)
Previously, I had the pleasure of being advised in my PhD by Peter J. Mucha and M. Gregory Forest. Other collaborators include: Dane Taylor, Feng "Bill" Shi, Theo J. Dingemans, Maruti Hegde, Daphne Klotsa, and Ryan Fox.
Upcoming and ongoing things on my agenda:
February-March: Tutoring Mathematics and Data Science for Development in the mathematical institute
March: Presenting (lightening talk) an upcoming paper on rigidity percolation at Complenet '19 in Tarragona, Spain
April: Co-presenting a recently accepted book chapter (pre-print available here) on industrial agglomeration at the AAG annual meeting session on cities and networks in Washington, DC (4/6/19--abstract available here)
May: Presenting an upcoming paper on rigidity percolation at Statistical Physics of Complex Systems in Stockholm (I am really hoping to have this on arXiv prior to the meeting)
June: The Oxford Summer School on Economic Networks (applications due March 31!)
July: Netmob 2019 at the mathematical institute
August: Co-hosting (alongside Isabella Loaiza Saa) a mini-symposium entitled "Social Networks for mass mobility" at LANet (mini-symposium website forthcoming) in Cartagena, Colombia
