Â鶹ÊÓƵ

My first degree was in Mathematics and Philosophy at University College Cork, Ireland, where I also studied for a Masters Degree in Mathematics.

My PhD research was in Complex Analysis at the University of Nottingham, specifically the value distribution of normal families, under the supervision of James K. Langley.

Since graduation, I have worked at several UK universities, before joining the Â鶹ÊÓƵ in 2023.

My research interests are in complex analysis, particularly value distribution and function theory.

In 2019 I co-authored a new edition of 'Research Problems in Function Theory' with Prof Walter K. Hayman, which was the fruitful culmination of several years of communication and collaborative work with international colleagues.

I have also been involved in mathematics education research projects.
