I am a theoretical cosmologist at Queen Mary, University of London. My work focuses on the early universe and in particular inflationary models.
More info and my CV

My recent work has included creating numerical simulations of cosmological perturbations during inflation. My code, called Pyflation, is open source and available for download.
